Since the UK's dramatic departure from the European Union, student mobility has become a frontline issue in the reshaping of higher education.

This book investigates how cross-border movement into and out of the UK has been transformed in the wake of Brexit. Drawing on extensive empirical data, the book explores changing mobility patterns, the rise of new infrastructures and the politics surrounding schemes like Turing. It critically examines how government policies and stakeholder responses are redefining international education.

This is vital resource for researchers, policymakers and practitioners navigating the evolving landscape of global student mobility.

Reviews for Post-Brexit Student Mobilities

‘A rich account of the developments and challenges arising post-Brexit for UK international student mobilities. As usual Brooks and Waters' work is critical, insightful and thoroughly researched - a must read for scholars, practitioners and policy makers in the field.’ Suzanne Beech, Ulster University 'A decade after the referendum, this timely book makes an important contribution to debates on both international student mobility and the impact of Brexit on higher education. It will be of great interest to students and scholars of higher education, policy studies and the sociology and geography of education.' Paul Wakeling, University of York
