The Politics of International Studying: Destinations of the Future

As we continue on from our last article where we discussed How Present-Day Politics May Affect International Language Studies, we understand that studying abroad is about more than getting an education. It is about broadening your horizons, experiencing new cultures, and often getting to grips with a second language. But with all of the political changes set in place in 2016, we have begun speculating if the flux of international students across the globe might now change. What impact is that going to have on our languages?

Europe Lastly on the list of other locations for international study is Europe. Finland has long been viewed as an education outlier due to its around 450 university subjects offered in English and its lack of tuition fees. However from January 2017 there will be an introduction of fees for international students, ranging from 5000 to 20000 euros depending on the degree subject. This might potentially strike Finland off the international studying list – as well as its freezing winters, expensive cost of living, and tongue twisting language to master!Berlin, Panorama Mitte via Wikimedia
