Crossing the Border to Study

This study focuses on mobility for a whole undergraduate course (rather than mobility for an academic year or semester). It draws on administrative data, Central Applications Office (CAO) microdata, interviews with key stakeholders and a consultation event with stakeholders to address the following research questions:

• What is the level of student mobility between Ireland and Northern Ireland (and between NI and the other countries of the UK)? How has this changed over time, in particular during the pandemic?
• What factors are associated with student mobility?
• To what extent is there potential to increase student mobility across the island? And is this seen as a desirable objective by stakeholders?
