Abstract

In recent decades, higher education has become increasingly more accessible across the world. With the expansion of local universities, international branch campuses and massive open online courses (MOOCs), students can pursue and earn a qualification from a well-established university without needing to leave their country.

However, the notion of going abroad to study still remains appealing despite the recent COVID-19 pandemic as many students still express interest in travelling abroad to further their studies.

The COVID-19 pandemic has also accelerated the growth of virtual student mobility programmes, where university students are invited to participate in intercultural and knowledge exchange remotely instead of being physically present in the host country.
