International Higher Education Commission
Former Universities Minister Rt Hon Chris Skidmore MP has launched an International Higher Education Commission under his Chairmanship, supported by Oxford International, to establish a new ‘International Education Strategy 2.0’ in partnership with the Higher Education community.
The latest report commissioned by the International Higher Education Commission (IHEC) reveals a decline in the international diversity of UK campuses. The loss of incoming Erasmus+ exchange students and UK students' decline in foreign language studies are contributing factors. To address this issue, the IHEC recommends that internationalisation at home to be one of the central parts of the UK's higher education strategy. The report provides several recommendations to enhance the advantages of internationalisation at home, including strengthening capacity and capability across various aspects of internationalisation. More details for a new international higher education strategy will be outlined in a final report planned to be published this November.
