Education without Borders: International Trade in Education

7 September 2005

Overview

Across the world, more people than ever before are undertaking an international education. This report looks at the major factors contributing to the emergence of the global education market and finds that, more than any other region, Asia continues to shape global demand.

As populations grow and national incomes increase, countries in Asia are both investing more in domestic higher education and turning to international education to help meet surging demand for student places. Australia’s institutions are taking increasing numbers of international students and are establishing campuses offshore. International trade negotiations are liberalising education trade and contributing to the emergence of a borderless market for international education.
