International Student Survey 2020 Report – Volume 4: The Decade Ahead

This volume of the International Student Survey takes a longer term outlook, exploring what the future may hold for international education, and how the industry – and universities themselves – might change over the coming year.

It answers the following questions:

  • What new and emerging courses are attracting interest?
  • How are universities expect to change over the next decade, and how will the campus experience differ?
  • What are the expectations of prospective students from the job market that awaits them after graduation?
  • Is there a ‘generation gap’ in the attitudes and drivers of today’s students, to the ones who have come before them?
