Hello and many thanks for taking part in this survey. Fully completed responses will be entered into a draw for an iPad mini.

The purpose of this survey is to evaluate the skills impacts and cultural impacts of Transnational Education (TNE) programmes. TNE generally

refers to educational programmes delivered in a different country to the one where the awarding institution is based, e.g. UK degreesdelivered in Malaysia. For the purposes of this study, TNE also includes arrangements where the main academic responsibility for the

educational programme rests with a different country to where the awarding institution is based, e.g. degrees awarded by Jordanian

universities with strong academic oversight provided by German universities.

TNE takes many different forms of international programme and provider mobility, such as international branch campuses and bi -national

universities joint degrees double degrees and franchise/twinning arrangements.

As someo ne we belie ve to be eithe r a curre nt stude nt or grad uate of a local non TNE programme, we very much value your views. The survey

should take about 8 minutes to complete.

The data collected for this survey will be presented in aggregate and no specific information provided will be attributed to you or your

institution.

Your HEI has been purposefully selected to participate in this study. Your response will contribute greatly to improve our understanding about

the impacts of TNE.

This survey is entirely voluntary and the information provided is confidential and anonymous.
