Podcast: International recruitment, graduate social mobility

This week on the podcast Home Office figures show more than 20,000 fewer study visa applications in August than a year earlier – so is the fall in international recruitment catastrophic for university finances, or merely extremely bad?

Universities UK International wants enrolments to return to growth, but new modelling from Public First suggests there is nowhere stable left to grow. Plus we discuss a new report from the Graduate Futures Institute finding that graduate opportunity remains deeply unequal, and our guests pick their stories of the week.

With Ben Vulliamy, Executive Director at the Association of Heads of University Administration, Jim Dickinson, Associate Editor at Wonkhe, Sharanya Sivarajah, Community and Policy Officer at Wonkhe and presented by Michael Salmon, News Editor at Wonkhe and Editor at Research Agenda.
