International Students in BC's Education Systems: Summary of Research from the Student Transitions Project
Heslop, Joanne
Student Transitions Project
This report provides key research findings from a recent analysis of international students studying in the British Columbia (B.C.) secondary and postsecondary education systems. The study was conducted by the Student Transitions Project (STP), a collaborative research partnership involving B.C.'s education and advanced education ministries and postsecondary institutions. The study addresses a number of research questions about the programs, pathways and education outcomes of international students who enrolled in B.C.'s secondary or public post-secondary system. Findings show that significant growth in international students has occurred in B.C.'s education systems over the last decade, primarily concentrated in the Lower Mainland post-secondary institutions and secondary schools. As the number of international students continues to expand in B.C., the STP will continue to monitor and report on the education achievements of these students in the B.C. system in an effort to aid policy development, program planning and decision-making within institutions and government.
