- W2992942010 abstract "This thesis investigates the relationship between the distribution of non-European Union (EU)international students across the UK higher education sector and the characteristics of UK highereducation institutions (HEIs) and the strategies they may pursue to make their provision moreattractive to non-European Union (EU) international students. It looks at how this relationshiphas evolved since 1995/96, analysing the recruitment patterns of individual HEIs in relation topolicy changes that may impact the number of students coming to UK higher education fromoutside the EU. To do so, I analyse an exceptionally large dataset, produced by UK’s HigherEducation Statistics Agency (HESA), containing information on over 35 million higher educationstudents covering a 22-year period. This study represents the first systematic longitudinal analysisof recruitment patterns of non-EU international students in UK HEIs for the past two decades.My analysis shows that UK institutional hierarchies play a pivotal in explaining the unevendistribution of non-EU internationals students across HEIs, particularly in policy environmentsthat seek to restrict mobility. Understanding this unevenness is critical considering the terms inwhich non-EU international students are recruited in UK higher education. This subset of studentsrepresents a substantial resource –both financial and symbolic– in the sector, as they tend to payhigher fees than their domestic counterparts and are perceived as a marker of institutional prestige,as attested in some global league tables. Thus, the observed inequalities between institutions interms of their shares of students who are non-EU international –with more prestigious HEIsoverwhelmingly having higher shares– contribute to longstanding resource and prestige disparitiesin UK higher education.Moreover, this thesis investigates whether the position of universities within UK institutionalhierarchies allows us to understand the strategies HEIs pursue to make their provision moreattractive to non-EU international students. Drawing from the Bourdieusian concept of ‘field ofpower’ (1993) and its development by Marginson (2008), I argue that the position of a given8university in a hierarchy will shape their ‘space of possibles’ (Bourdieu 1993: 30; Marginson 2008:307), that is the strategies that they may follow to successfully recruit non-EU internationalstudents. Previous research suggests that universities that recruit non-EU international students asa result of marketising their educational offering to a global audience, pitch their products toparticularly lucrative markets, which results in certain institutions having particularly highconcentrations of certain nationalities in certain subjects (Findlay et al. 2017). However, as I showin this thesis, the extent to which HEIs engage in these practices vary depending on their positionin UK’s institutional hierarchy." @default.
