Determinants of willingness to study in Poland among members of Polish Diaspora

Although the percentage of foreign students in Poland has increased over 9 times over past 10 years, it is still well below European Union average. We have been looking for determinants of willingness to study in Poland among members of Polish Diaspora, who already have ties with the country. We created empirical models of willingness of people with Polish origin to study abroad, in Poland, and in a peripheral Polish academic centre in particular. Such models can help policy-makers and universities to meet the needs of international students and make universities more competitive on the global higher education market.
