Podcast: Immigration, China, PTES, graduate mobility

This week on the podcast we consider the fall out from last week’s immigration figures.

Is a crackdown on international students really on its way from government? Plus we chat China amid growing concerns about the superpower’s relationship with HE, this year’s PTES suggests rapid expansion might need more careful management, and HESA is helping us understand brain drain.

With Lucy Van Essen-Fishman, Lead Policy and Research Analyst in Data and Innovation at HESA, Jonathan Simons, Partner and Head of the Education Practice at Public First, Michael Salmon, News Editor at Wonkhe and presented by Jim Dickinson, Associate Editor at Wonkhe.
