Abstract
The knowledge economy has a long history and, internationally, has been dependent on the mobility of individuals to engage with and transmit learning. But while individual mobility was widespread, the institutions most commonly associated with knowledge production and dissemination – higher-education institutions – remained stubbornly national – whether limited by the demands of domestic regulation or by protectionist approaches in potential destinations. This was all to change at the end of the 20th century and the past 30 years or so have seen almost seismic shifts in context, in policy and regulation, and in attitudes and behaviour. Now, the idea of institutional mobility is no longer seen as a being a bold, abnormal, overly risky or threatening choice and has become a realistic strategic option for a range of higher-education providers. This chapter charts the growth of international branch campuses in the broader context of international higher education. It explores motives and approaches, considers operational challenges and draws on the case of the University of Nottingham to address many of these issues in practice.
