Intervention en anglais

The seminar gives the opportunity to share the results from the survey conducted with African students in Ankara, which stems from a previous research by Farkhad Alimukhamedov  (« The Analysis of International Students Migration Towards Turkey », Bilge Strateji, 7, 12:117-132).The author tries to frame the question of Turkey’s increasing attempts for internationalization of its Higher Education. The paper identifies the social and demographic belonging of international students in Turkey and highlights the strategies and paths of the foreigners by underlining their social and economic life in the host society. Finally, it also draws the pathways for international students which are remodeling student mobility to skilled migration.
