The number of postgraduate students travelling from non-EU countries to study at UK universities has fallen for the first time in 16 years, fuelling fears that the government’s immigration crackdown is discouraging thousands of the brightest students from continuing their studies in Britain.
Jo Beall, British Council director of education and society, said the fall would cause alarm among UK vice-chancellors(大学行政主管). "The sector was expecting a decline in growth, but the actual reduction in postgraduate numbers is of real concern as international students make up the majority of numbers in many postgraduate courses and research teams in science, technology, engineering and mathematics."
"Attracting the brightest and most ambitious postgraduate and research students is critical if the UK is to maintain its quality reputation for research," Beall said.
Universities get a third of their tuition(学费)fee revenue from non-EU students. There is growing, fear among vice-chancellors that this revenue—as well as the cultural, academic and economic benefit international students bring—is being put at risk.
Tim Westlake. director for the student experience at Manchester University, said students whose families relied on them working in the UK after their studies to gain experience and repay the fees were starting to look elsewhere.
Last month the home secretary, Theresa May. announced that embassy staff would interview more than 100 000 applicants in an attempt to prevent bogus(假冒的)ones entering the country. She also said immigrants were responsible for pushing up UK house prices. The comments followed the introduction of new limitations on students’ right to work during and after their studies.
Beall said:"Government statistics for the first time provide real evidence that the changes to UK visa regulations may have discouraged many students from applying to the UK, and in particular postgraduate Students who are so important to the UK’s research output. The UK enjoys an excellent reputation around the world for the high quality of our education system, so the government needs to ensure that institutions have all the support they need to attract international students who make a tremendous academic, cultural and economic contribution to the UK." [br] What is UK vice-chancellors’ biggest concern?
选项
A、How to obtain financial support from the government.
B、How to keep the academic reputation of their institutions.
C、How to prevent bogus applicants entering their universities.
D、How to stimulate the creativity of their research teams.
答案
B
解析
推理判断题。第二段第二句指出.该部门之前就预汁到增长会有所下降,但实际减少的研究生人数却是真正令其担心的.因为国际学生在科学、技术、工程和数学等领域的许多研究生课程和研究团队中占据了较大比例。由此可推断,大学行政主管最担心的是如何维持大学的学术声誉,故答案为B)。
