THIS YEAR’S HIGHLIGHTS The 2013-14 has been a productive year for the UK Higher Education International Unit. Here are some of the highlights: Extending eligibility & recognition:
Promoting outward student mobility:
Influencing major eu funding programmes:
Providing intelligence & research:
Extending the range of eligible institutions for scholarships or recognition in China and Turkey in collaboration with the British Council. This work continues in other countries including Saudi Arabia.
This includes securing a more generous full economic costing (FEC) rate for Horizon 2020, and ensuring that UK HEIs were protected from the Erasmus+ shortfall.
Implementing the UK Strategy for Outward Mobility, launching the Go International website, and delivering a series of expert development programmes.
This includes publishing the Horizon Scanning Report examining what higher education will look like in 2020, as well as a range of country guides, international higher education facts and figures, information notes and policy briefings.
Expanding science without borders (swb):
Placing 4,674 undergraduate SwB students, including 1,928 students for the fourth call for January 2014 entry, and a record 2,746 Brazilian undergraduate students across 83 UK universities for the fifth call for September 2014 entry, bringing the total undergraduate and PhD students to over 8,500 students placed since the programme began.
“We have a clear role in helping higher education institutions take advantage of the many opportunities that are opening up worldwide. It is obvious that higher education is acquiring greater importance to the UK’s position in the world - diplomatically, economically and in so-called ‘soft power’.” Vivienne Stern Director, International Unit

Helping UK HEIs to develop their international activities The Newton Fund The International Unit is working with partners to inform and support the development of the UK Government’s £375m Newton Fund, ensuring that universities have an opportunity to help shape the scheme. The funding should promote the long term economic development and welfare of people in partner countries and unlock new opportunities for HEIs to contribute and build partnerships.
‘Our collaboration with the International Unit has helped to greatly expand our reach into the UK’s academic sector and will ensure a greater impact for the UK through our work.’ Dr Claire McNulty Director of Science and Research, British Council
Key achievements for 2013/14: nn Influencing the development of the Newton Fund policy across the fund through
negotiations with partner countries, and secured a role as a UK delivery partners in a consortium led by the British Council, delivering some activities for mobility and developing capacity.
nn Communicating opportunities to the sector:
Launching the Newton Funding Bulletin providing updates and details of all open Newton Fund calls to ensure that the UK HE sector is kept updated and informed of all new opportunities; providing details of news and any calls through a special Newton Fund area of the website for each region as well as for multi-country calls; and organising a forthcoming Newton Fund conference to provide information about details of the fund to the sector, as well as an opportunity to network and ask questions.
nn
Delivering programmes: using our expertise and access to support the ‘People’ strand of the Newton Fund, with activities such as postgraduate support services and putting together evaluation panels.
The International Unit runs a number of programmes which help UK HEIs to enhance their international activities, ranging from campaigns to encourage more students to study abroad to scholarship schemes for Brazilian students.” Professor Sir Ian Diamond Principal and Vice-Chancellor, University of Aberdeen

Outward Student Mobility (OSM) OSM key achievements 2013/14: institutions attended 5 Outward Mobility seminars and Community of Practice meetings. The team visited 19 HEIs and... ...participated in 22 speaking events across the UK and Europe “The fact that we now have stated government commitment to outward mobility is sending the right message to our staff and students. It also helps when working with our international partners to dispel the myth that British students are not mobile.� Dr Annette Kratz Head Europe and International Mobility, University of Surrey
In an increasingly globalised job market for UK graduates, with pressure on universities to produce graduates ready for the world beyond their degree, the International Unit supports UK universities to get more students to study or work abroad to enhance their employability, cultural diplomacy, and language skills. In response to this need, the International Unit established the Go International Programme to work with universities and colleges, government, and sector organisations to help tackle the barriers to UK student mobility. Its aim is to help increase the proportion of UK students who have international experience.
nn Launching the Go International website: an online information hub on study
and work abroad for institutions, students and parents, with evidence of the benefits of international experience in the form of research and case studies and other resources including information on sources of funding.
nn Delivering specialist workshops on how to interpret QAA guidelines on quality assurance of overseas placements, aimed at all university staff working in student mobility, including study abroad officers, careers department, academic staff and risk assessment teams.
nn Improving data on outward mobility:
working with the Higher Education Statistics agency (HESA) to increase the accuracy of data collected and reported on outwardly mobile students. The Outward Mobility team has supplied universities and HESA with detailed definitions of outward mobility to help improve data return.
Science without Borders (SwB) The International Unit administers the UK branch of the Brazilian government’s Science without Borders scholarship programme for Brazilian undergraduate, PhD, post-doctoral and mobility students to come to the UK to study. The Science without Borders scholarship programme, bringing over
8500 Brazilian undergraduate and PhD students to study science-related subjects in the UK since the programme began in 2012, has been a huge success, exceeding the original target. The UK is the second most popular destination for Brazilian students, after the United States.
“The SwB scheme has really opened up the doors to Brazil. As a result I am in the process of further firming existing relationships in order to bid for research funding, institutional partnerships for joint degrees and further student and staff exchanges…The potential for future collaboration is immense.” Dr Bruno Fazenda Senior Lecturer Acoustics Research Centre, School of Computing, Science & Engineering, University of Salford

students at UK universities for the 5th cohort of Science without Borders in 2014 (bringing the total number of students for the fourth and fifth calls for January and September 2014 entry to 4674 undergraduate students).
nn Supporting visa applications and offering advice: supporting the students, UK HEIs, and liaising with UKVI to ensure 100% success rate for SwB undergraduate student visa applications.
nn Responding: answering over 20,000 email queries (over
46,000 since the programme began) and participating in 6 informational Facebook chats with more than 300 SwB students.
nn Hosting a series of PhD workshops in Brazil for the
Science without Borders programme, designed to encourage more exchange of PhDs and post-doctoral students between UK and Brazilian universities. The International Unit organised this event in collaboration with the UK Science and Innovation Network (SIN) and the British Council.
10 UK Universities and over 40 universities from across Brazil participated in the week-long programme.

Increasing influence on international policy Key policy achievements for 2013-14:
82% ‘agreed’ or ‘strongly agreed’: “The IU influences positively UK policy on HE and international issues”
nn Representing the sector at high level UK government policy fora
such as at the International Education Council, overseeing the International Education Strategy, and the Global Science and Innovation Council, so that HE is represented in the development of international research policy.
nn Intelligence and Research: Launching
the Horizon Scanning Report, in partnership with the Observatory on Borderless Education and the Leadership Foundation, to examine what higher education will look like internationally in 2020. The International Unit published a range of country guides information notes and policy briefings and the International Facts and Figures publication provided data and recent trends to inform decision-making in HEIs.
nn Building relationships with international governments: Promoting UK Higher Education and identifying shared priorities with senior international delegations in bilateral meetings involving 70+ Ministers and officials from over 30 countries from around the world, to raise topics spanning the UK HE sector’s contribution to the London 2012 Olympics, institutional diversity, leadership training, quality assurance, research collaboration and the provision of immersion courses for teachers of English.
nn Identifying ‘Priority’ and ‘Opportunity’ countries in consultation with the sector, and using a series of socio-economic metrics and policy analysis to ensure the International Unit opens doors where they would be most useful.
15
nn Cross-cutting policy themes: Identifying common
themes of interest to a broad range of UK HEIs and focusing co-ordinated effort to identify opportunities in these areas, including teacher training; governance; frameworks and quality; innovation; English language, business, medical and health education; research policy; and international development.
nn Transnational Education (TNE): Leading the debate
and discussion around TNE, speaking at ten conferences and events, advising on BIS-funded research into the value of TNE, and contributing to the development of the quality code and improved guidance on international partnerships. The Industrial Strategy tasked the International Unit and the QAA to explore strengthening quality assurance of TNE: we held joint events in Scotland, Wales, and London to ensure a high level of responses from across the sector (113) to shape the development of future processes. The International Unit is active in the quality assurance implementation group and will be seeking universities’ input over the next few months.
nn HE Global: Building on its 2012 launch, HE Global is launching
a programme of TNE seminars and discussion events for Autumn 2013-14. HE Global brings together UK government, national agencies, and higher education sector expertise and experience to support and grow UK universities’ transnational education activities.
nn International Development: Influencing policy to increase
support for the role of HE in economic development around the world, representing the HE sector on the Department for International Development (DfID) Higher Education Taskforce, and in the development of forthcoming multi-million pound higher education programmes drawing on a survey of the sector.
“The IU provides an important and useful interface between Government and the HE sector – it would be very difficult to access policy related information without the IU.” John MacKenzie Policy Officer to the Pro-Vice–Chancellor, International Priorities, University of Salford
European Policy The International Unit’s work has gained in profile and increased in volume significantly with

responses to consultations
and an expanding network of contacts and greater prominence with Brussels and Bologna stakeholders. The International Unit has grown its capacity to influence European decision-makers through developing relationships with Commission officials, promoting the profile of UK universities by briefing new UK MEPs, building alliances in Brussels and with other Member States and shaping the UK sector’s position on the future of European policy in research and higher education ahead of the Bologna Ministerial Summit in 2015.
“When the IU speaks on behalf of all UK HE institutions, people in Brussels take notice and listen.” Professor Sir Steve Smith Vice-Chancellor and Chief Executive, University of Exeter
17
Top achievements in the European policy region 2013/14: nn Launching a national campaign to articulate the benefits of EU membership for UK universities in collaboration with Universities UK and GuildHE.
nn Consulting the sector: Providing a sector level response to key European policy consultations such as EU Copyright rules and European Area of Skills and Qualifications, and building alliances to influence these (e.g. Data Protection Regulation), as well as providing the UK higher education sector a voice in Brussels in the UK Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s review of the Balance of Competences between the United Kingdom and the EU.
nn Enhancing understanding of EU opportunities for UK universities through speaking engagements and events, including a conference organised in partnership with the DAAD and the Institut Français, the European Funding Bulletin, Europe Notes, updating the sector on key developments; and Europe Community of Practice meetings.
Middle East & Africa Policy The Middle East and Africa is an expanding area for the International Unit, as we have been initiating new relationships and scoping new opportunities in places we have not previously had engagement before, such as North Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa. We have also been continuing to build upon established relationships, including working with the Saudi and UK governments on increasing the number of Saudi scholars in the UK. One of our key areas of work in this region is in responding and
pre-empting crises which could affect international student populations in the UK and informing UK HEIs on developments in turbulent regions that affect students and recruitment through sector briefings, advice, and at our MENA Community of Practice, as well as representing the sector on the cross-government Responding to International Student Crises (RISC) committee.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;The CoPs [Communities of Practice] have in my opinion been very successful and allow open discussions between different universities and with different stakeholders to occur.â&#x20AC;? Professor Vince Emery Pro-Vice-Chancellor, International, University of Surrey & Chair, MENA Community of Practice
19
Key achievements in the Middle East and Africa Policy region 2013/14: nn Lifting the cap on the number of Kuwaiti students studying in the UK on full scholarships
through our work with the UK Kuwait Joint Steering Group and Kuwait Ministry of Higher Education. This follows on from a gradual year-on-year increase from 400 scholarships in 2011/12 to 950 in 2013/14 (93% of the scholarships on offer were taken by successful students last year).
nn Creating
opportunities for the UK Higher Education sector to create new networks, agreements and partnerships via an International Unit-led delegation to Qatar and MoU with the Qatar Foundation. Organising and hosting the first roundtable of Iraqi Ministers and UK HEIs in response to sector interest gauged from the MENA Community of Practice.
Extending the number
of UK HEIs eligible to receive Turkish government scholarship students from 45 to 96 As a result of International Unit lobbying, the Board of the Turkish Council for Higher Education (YOK) extended the list of UK universities eligible to receive Turkish Government scholarship students.
Asia Policy The IU represented the sector on visits to Asia with senior university representatives
which included countries cities research facilities
The International Unit continues to work with a number of Asian governments to increase the number of scholars to the UK from Indonesia, develop research collaborations in Malaysia, and to influence the development of the Newton Fund across the region. The International Unit is working with the British Council to raise the profile of UK Higher Education in South East Asia, representing the sector in Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Singapore and advising on the development of an ASEAN higher education area. The International Unitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s involvement in two Prime Ministerial visits to China and Kazakhstan ensured that higher education was a priority for the UK Government. The International Unit has used diplomatic opportunities to represent the entire breadth of the UK higher education sector, for example, taking six universities with us to the People to People Dialogue in Beijing in April.
21
Key achievements in the Asia Policy region 2013/14: nn Providing insight and intelligence about opportunities such as in India, through
information notes outlining the situation in India post-elections and highlighting the challenges and opportunities this presents for UK Higher Education, and through inviting the Indian High Commissioner to brief the Asia Community of Practice about the new Indian governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s higher education agenda.
nn Expanding recognition of UK institutions by keeping the quality and
diversity of UK higher education and research at the forefront of diplomatic re-engagement with China, and working with the UK Government to persuade the Ministry of Education to agree to expand the list of recognised institutions.
nn Influencing funding decisions on a third phase of UKIERI (which funded 66
new HE partnerships in 2013/14), engaging with the Indian government on domestic reforms that can create new opportunities for UK HEIs through building State level capacity and changing regulations, and continuing to promote the value of UK qualifications to the new Indian government.
Americas Policy UK HEIs frequently called on International Unit intelligence to open up new opportunities in Ecuador and Peru, to help them develop existing relationships in Chile and Argentina, and to understand research funding opportunities in the Newton Fund partner countries (Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico). The International Unit produced a Spanish language translation of its Guide to UK Higher Education to
promote awareness and understanding of UK HE’s distinctive strengths, and has distributed this widely across key contacts in the Latin America region. The International Unit has raised the issue of eligibility lists with a number of overseas agencies (agencies in Latin America increasingly base such lists around the results of international university rankings) where these restrict participation in governmentfunded scholarship programmes and access to research funding.
“The spread of interests that were associated with the delegation, and therefore IU, would be impossible for one institution to reproduce.” Professor Tim Gallagher Dean of the Faculty of Science, University of Bristol
23
Key achievements in the Americas Policy region 2013/14 nn Leading a delegation of UK universities to Chile and Argentina: Enabling UK institutions to
prepare strong joint proposals with Chilean Institutions for the Newton-Picarte Fund, and introducing UK institutions to key contacts in Argentina. Useful findings from the trip were disseminated more widely in a report for the whole sector.
Chile and Argentina delegation in facts and figures:
12 10 300
UK university representatives visited C hilean and Argentinean universities, and networked with more than
higher education and research professionals at receptions hosted by the British Ambassador in Santiago and Buenos Aires.
out of 12
institutions have already reported new collaborative activity in the follow up survey.
nn Scoping new opportunities in emerging economies, leading to discussions of additional postgraduate scholarships to the UK, for example from Peru, as well as English
opportunities in Colombia, teacher training in Panama, and brokering meetings between UK HEIs and potential Latin American university and regional government partners.
nn Promoting opportunities for collaboration to the sector, including a steering role in the Global
Innovation Initiative, funded by the UK and US governments and the British Council, which has led to 23 new trilateral partnerships funding UK and US institutions to develop collaborative research projects with institutions in China, India, Brazil and Indonesia. Creating opportunities for the UK sector to engage in new opportunities for example in visits by several senior Ecuadorian officials leading to an increased number of UK HEIs being involved in Ecuadorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Yachayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; knowledge city project, and signing agreements to host Ecuadorian scholarship students at their institutions.
Promoting the UK internationally The International Unit organises and leads its own delegations on behalf of the UK HE sector as well as representing and contributing to government-led delegations. Here is a summary of our activities in 2013-14.
