dc.description.abstract | The paper investigates the approaches employed for attracting international full-degree
students in three countries on the periphery of Europe/the European Economic Area:
Norway, Poland and Portugal. These countries, considered semi-peripheral regarding
international student recruitment, have shorter traditions for incoming mobility than
countries that are major recruiters and which have been the focus of previous research
on attracting international students. The paper analyses national policies and strategies,
focusing on their emergence, rationales and instruments. The study is comparative,
aiming to find commonalities and differences in the approaches of these countries
further to the changing global environment in higher education. The major finding is
that semi-peripheral countries appear to employ different strategies and resort to other
comparative advantages than the largest student recruiters, exploiting political, cultural
or geographical aspects rather than educational assets. The findings highlight the need
for these countries to identify their distinctive attraction capacities and assets, as well as
to be purposeful in choosing their target recruitment regions | en |
