UK: More British students 'to study abroad'
09.08.2010
British students are to be offered up to two years at universities abroad amid government warnings that poor language skills are crippling graduates' job prospects, writes Graeme Paton for The Telegraph. Joint undergraduate and postgraduate courses will be developed between British universities and those in countries such as India under new coalition government plans.In a groundbreaking move, students would be able to complete mainstream qualifications including maths, science and IT overseas after starting them in Britain. The move comes after business leaders claimed that young people were increasingly missing out in the workplace because of a poor grasp of foreign languages combined with a lack of experience of living abroad.
A report from the Confederation of British Industry earlier this year found that almost three-quarters of companies were dissatisfied with students' language skills while more than half warned of "shortfalls in their international cultural awareness" - potentially jeopardising trade with countries such as China, India, Russia and Brazil.
