Created by law on July 27, 2010, Campus France is a public agency overseen by the French ministries in charge of Foreign Affairs and of Higher Education and Research. The Agency acts in agreement with higher education institutions and their representative conferences. The principal missions of Campus France are to promote French higher education abroad, coordinate services for international students in France, and to make mobility arrangements for recipients of international grants and scholarships conferred by the governements. 3 Key figures On international student mobility Worldwide student mobility in 2012 Top 5 host countries of international students in 2012 Source: UNESCO - Extracted May 2014 Mobile students 3,984,000 X 2 in 10 years United States 740,482 United Kingdom 427,686 France 271,399 Australia 249,588 Germany 206,986 Together these 5 countries host nearly half of the world’s international students.

To better respond to local demand, 76 country-specific websites in 33 different languages have been developed from the main site. In 2013, Campus France’s websites received 14 million visits. Search engines/catalogs • Catalog of French higher education programs • Catalog of doctoral programs • Catalog of higher education programs taught in English • CampusBourses catalog of grants and scholarships • Catalog of summer sessions and French-language programs: short courses and cultural programs • Art trainings: CampusArt site Profile For those who seek detailed information, Campus France publishes various profiles in several languages: • 60 subject area profiles • 450 institutional profiles • 200 student service profiles • 9 degree profiles • 10 research profiles • 283 doctoral department profiles These sites provide access to specialized search engines and detailed information on higher education in France. www.campusfrance.org > Espace Documentaire 6 Information guides • “ Choose France” A guide designed for prospective international students. Choose France provides basic information for students planning a period of study in France. • “ Enjoy Culture Shock” This pocket guide in French/English explains and translates language tricks of everyday life that students will experience. • “ Étudier en France après le Baccalauréat” Produced in 2011 in cooperation with AEFE, the Agency for French overseas education, this guide is designed to help pupils of French high schools abroad and their parents make an informed choice from among the many postsecondary options available in France. International promotional events For international students acilitating higher F education cooperation Campus France Agency organises or participates in many events throughout the world such as: student fairs, scheduled appointments with students and doctoral candidates, virtual fairs “Campus France Caravans” (showcasing French higher education in higher education cities abroad), etc. In order to develop institutional dialogue and facilitate higher education cooperation between France and its international partners, Campus France organises institutional meetings for foreign higher education delegations visiting France. In 2013, Campus France initiated with Japan a new program to promote study opportunities in Japan for French students. Theme-oriented missions or visits of foreign journalists in France are also regularly organised by Campus France. 7 Support Hosting international students and scholars For everyone For scholarship recipients Before departure Upon arrival in France Personal assistance from Campus France’s local offices Designed for 24,300 recipients of French and foreign government scholarships By providing information, advice, and guidance, the Agency’s offices help students conceive and design a coherent study plan and to prepare for their stay in France. In some countries, staff from the offices conduct personal interviews and help students carry out administrative procedures. In cooperation with the CNOUS and CROUS network, Campus France assists international students in finding housing in university residences or in private rental housing. Campus France also helps students with administrative tasks such as registering for health insurance, completing residency permit procedures, opening a bank account, and so on. The Espaces may also organize sessions on predeparture preparation and offer language training through cultural institutions (Alliance française, the Institut Français). 8 For scholarship recipients For everyone Managing mobility programmes during the stay in France After the study stay: alumni follow-up Campus France’s mission extends to maintaining regular contact with international students once they have completed their stay in France. Assisting scholarship recipients In-country mobility services include paying out scholarship, providing support to students and overseeing the academic progress of scholarship recipients. To complete this mission, Campus France is currently developing a community tool designed to network former students, higher education institutions, companies and any other player involved in student mobility or wishing to be associated to the package. International mobility arrangements for French experts abroad and for foreign experts in France and hosting VIP visitors Through an interactive platform operational in 2014, Campus France aims at offering alumni and partners information, coordination, and valuable services, such as the opportunity to access highly qualified individual contacts and to participate in private discussion groups on selected themes. For distinguished visitors, Campus France establishes madeto-measure specifications in cooperation with the inviting organization and oversees the visit from travel arrangements and airport pickup through personal assistance during the stay. Access is carried out at the global level from an Internet website managed by Campus France, and at the local level from sites managed by France’s embassies. On the long term, the international website will be available in English, and possibly in Spanish. Local websites may be available in local languages. Personal online accounts The Campus France website offers password-protected access for grant recipients, scholars, and experts whose period of mobility is managed by Campus France. 66,800 connections from grant recipients and foreign experts were recorded in 2013. 9 Coordination Facilitating academic and scientific exchanges and partnerships Campus France, the exclusive operator of French government mobility programs French government scholarships The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs entrusts Campus France to administer the many scholarships that the country’s embassies award each year to students, research scholars, and professionals following short-term training programs. Campus France also manages other mobility programs for students and scholars, among them the Eiffel Excellence Grants and the programs of AEFE, the Agency for French overseas education. Online management of mobility for scholars To facilitate the Hubert Curien Partnerships—joint research projects involving a French and a foreign research team— Campus France has established online procedures for the submission and tracking of applications. The Campus France website allows users to submit applications to programs. The site provides a single resource for students, scholars, universities, and Grandes Écoles to learn about available opportunities and to submit applications. Foreign government grant and scholarship programs Some examples To better respond to the expectations of foreign governments, Campus France is developing a service to place students in institutions selected for their ability to deliver relevant training, including French language programs if necessary. • Malaysia Program: For the past 10 years, Campus France has coordinated scientific and technical programs in French higher education institutions on behalf of the Malaysian government. • Libyan program for French teachers: On demand of the Libyan Ministry of Labour, Campus France manages a program that aims at training 300 Libyan students in French in order to teach French in secondary institutions after their return in Libya. 10 • Argentinian program Bec.Ar.: This program aims at fostering the country’s technological development, innovation and competitiveness and is designed for students in Master. • Programs with Peru: Up to 2016, Campus France manages 2 Peruvian mobility programs to France at Bachelor or Master/ Doctorate level, particularly in Science and Technology courses. • “Science without Borders” program: Launched in Brazil by the CAPES and CNPq, the program will provide 10,000 scholarships for study in France between 2012 and 2015. Campus France is the sole operator of this program in France, and has developed new know-how and operational modes to inform, support, place and follow Brazilian students. Campus France has designed a dedicated website to put students and French higher education institutions in relation, set up French language improvement classes (in FLE) and implemented a customized higher education follow-up to guarantee the student’s success in his study course. This program covers all levels from Bachelor to Master, and completes Master and Doctorate trainings integrated in companies.

As detailed in the new Agency’s founding decree of December 30, 2011, the “Campus France Forum” enables French higher education institutions to take an active part in Campus France’s international student recruitment policy. A digital section specifically restricted to members of the Forum offers a privileged access to everything regarding the Forum: news, Campus France institutional publications, works from all topical commissions, archives, Forum agenda, etc. Dedicated tools are also available to the members of the Forum (institutional profiles, catalogs, etc.). In March 2014, Campus France Forum reached 296 higher education and research institutions. The Forum governance and operation The Forum Office is chaired by a representative of the Conference of University Presidents (Conférence des Présidents d’Université, CPU) and has two vice-presidents from the Grande Ecoles Conference (Conférence des Grandes Écoles, CGE) and the French Engineering Schools Directors Conference (Conférence des Directeurs des Écoles Françaises d’Ingénieurs, CDEFI). 14 Topical commissions As a discussion system, the Forum structures its work around commissions. In 2013, seven topical commissions have been put in place and have issued their first recommendations to the Campus France Board of Administrators, which implemented them on October 3, 2013. In 2014, new commissions are organized around the impact of MOOCS (Massive Open Online Course) in global higher education and in partnership with the Agency 2E2F, in support of the Erasmus + program initiated on January 1st, 2014 by the European Commission for a 7-year period. Campus France now plays a central part in the support of institutions globalization and student mobility. Campus France is present right from the country of origin thanks to its local offices (Espaces and Antennes) throughout the world, and wishes to contribute, via its participation in the greeting of students at one-stop service desks, to the building of an efficient welcome chain. 15 Building the European Higher Education Area Campus France responds to international calls for tenders and participates in many European projects in the fields of the promotion of European higher education, academic mobility, and higher education cooperation. Campus France is a partner of the Erasmus Mundus Action 3 projects: • EM-ACE (Promoting Erasmus Mundus towards European Students: Activate, Communicate, Engage) aims at improving the promotion of the Erasmus Mundus program towards European students in order to improve the quantity and quality of applications (www.em-ace.eu) ; • ALISIOS (Academic Links and Strategies for the Internationalisation of the higher education Sector) aims at improving political dialog and institutional cooperation between Europe and Brazil, linking in particularly to the Science without Borders program (www.uc.pt/en/alisios). Campus France has also gained experience in Erasmus Mundus Action 2 partnership and mobility projects such as: HERITAGE www.heritage-ema2.eu STETTIN http://mundus-stettin.univ-amu.fr From 2010 to 2013, Campus France also coordinated the PromoDoc project, which aimed at increasing the attractiveness of doctoral studies in Europe for students from industrialized third countries (www.promodoc.org). ALYSSA www.alyssa-tunisie.eu The Agency is also regularly consulted by the European Commission on strategies for internationalizing institutions of higher education and increasing their appeal to foreign students. Finally, for the period 2014–2019, Campus France serves as coordinator of a program that provides cofinancing for postdoctoral mobility. The Marie Skłodowska-Curie program is funded by the European Commission under its 7th R&D Framework Program. The Agency’s partners are the French Conference of University Presidents (Conférence des Présidents d’université), the Rhône-Alpes-Midi-Pyrénées region, and various research institutions. The Agency also participates in the Tempus program via MIMI (Modernisation of Institutional Management of Internationalization in South Neighboring Countries), which aims at measuring the level of internationalization of Moroccan, Jordanian and Lebanese partner universities, establishing guidelines to build-up and implement globalization strategies and broadcasting good practices that applies to higher education disseminating good practices that apply to international relations. 16 Research & Studies For the benefit of all higher education institutions and a wide institutional audience, • Dossiers Campus France focuses on a particular country, examining mobility issues in the target area, the local higher education context and international competition to attract students from the area, etc. Campus France publishes analyses, and evaluative and comparative studies on various aspects of student mobility. • Each issue of Notes de Campus France puts the spotlight on a n° 41 lesnotes Novembre 2013 de Campus France Mobilité internationale des chercheurs et attractivité de la France Stéphane AYMARD, Université de la Rochelle, PCN Mobilité* Avant-propos La présente note dresse un bilan des mobilités des chercheurs en Europe en s’appuyant sur les financements du 7e PCRDT (Programme Cadre de Recherche et Développement Technologique) « Marie Curie » de 2007 à 2013. L’étude de ces financements prestigieux, ouverts à tous les chercheurs et pour toutes les thématiques, permet d’évaluer l’attractivité des différents pays et établissements. Les résultats montrent que la France occupe une place importante, aussi bien en termes d’accueil (mobilités entrantes) qu’en termes de nationalités des chercheurs (mobilités sortantes). Par ailleurs, des spécificités sont observées avec des flux plus importants entre certains pays. La mobilité internationale des chercheurs est devenue un enjeu dans de nombreux pays. Des mesures importantes ont été prises pour faciliter l’accueil, encourager les mobilités (bourses, subventions) et mettre en réseau les différents acteurs (établissements, agences, organismes). Dans la plupart des cas, une compétition s’est installée, notamment pour l’accès au financement. La comparaison des résultats obtenus est toutefois difficile car il n’existe pas de données exhaustives, en raison, par exemple du nombre élevé de courts séjours ou de mobilités non financées. Avec le lancement le 11 décembre 2013 du nouveau programme européen de financement de la recherche et de l’innovation « Horizon 2020 », les bilans et performances de chaque pays sont examinés de près. L’attractivité internationale est devenue une priorité que l’on retrouve également au niveau national dans le plan d’action 2014 de l’Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR). L’objectif de cette note est d’apporter un éclairage en utilisant des données fiables, de grande qualité, issues des bases de la Commission Européenne pour les actions « Marie Curie ». L’intérêt de cet outil est son caractère uniforme : le même instrument est utilisé dans tous les pays, dans les mêmes conditions. Plus de 4000 mobilités ont été financées et l’étude permet de dégager des tendances fortes de l’attractivité : prédominance du Royaume-Uni comme pays de destination ; concentration des destinations en Europe sur quelques pays ; solde excédentaire pour les pays du nord de l’Europe (plus d’entrants que de sortants) ; solde déficitaire pour les pays du sud de l’Europe (plus de sortants que d’entrants) ; mobilités sortantes pus importantes des Espagnols et Italiens ; mobilités entrantes importantes en Suisse et aux Pays-Bas. * Point de Contact National (PCN ) : personnes identifiées conjointement par les autorités françaises (dans ce cas, par les conférences d’établissements et le Ministère de l’Enseignement supérieur et de la Recherche) et la Commission européenne pour servir de point de contact dans le cadre des appel d’offres sur l’Europe. Stéphane Aymard a été PCN « Mobilité » dans le cadre du 7e Programme Cadre de Recherche et Développement Technologique (PCRDT) mis en place par la Commission européenne de 2007 à 2013. Il est actuellement PCN « Marie Sklodowska Curie » pour le programme Horizon 2020 dont l’investissement représente 75 milliards d’euros à déployer sur 7 ans de 2014 à 2020. www.campusfrance.org 1 les notes de Campus France n° 41 - Novembre 2013 particular aspect of student mobility, such as support services, the distribution of international students in France, alumni networks, doctoral mobility, and European agencies for the promotion of exchanges, university websites, student visas, and international academic rankings, among others. • Each year, Chiffres clés offers a • Focus Pays puts the complete comparative panorama of international student mobility accompanied by statistical profiles for each of the countries invited to the Rencontres Campus France that year. spotlights on countries developing their students’ international mobility. 3 600 000 étudiants internationaux L’essentiel des chiffres clés 7 Juin 2013 L’essentiel des chiffres Clés L’essentiel des chiffres Clés n° 42 lesnotes Janvier 2014 de Campus France • Baromètre Campus France TNS Sofres focuses on the image and Deux ans après sa première édition, Campus France publie le nouveau baromètre sur l’image et l’attractivité de la France auprès des étudiants étrangers, réalisé par TNS Sofres. En 2013, la France a accueilli plus de 289 000 étudiants étrangers. Afin de mieux cerner leurs attentes, leurs motivations à venir en France et leurs différents niveaux de satisfaction, Campus France a renouvelé son étude 2011. Cette année encore, près de 20 000 étudiants à travers le monde ont accepté de répondre, notamment grâce à l’aide apportée par les membres du Forum et les Espaces Campus France dans la diffusion de l’enquête. Grâce à cette très forte participation et une répartition géographique représentative, il est possible d’effectuer des analyses approfondies sur les grandes zones géographiques et sur les principaux pays d’origine des étudiants. Cette étude apporte aussi de nouveaux éléments de réponses à certaines questions comme l’impact qu’a pu avoir la circulaire Guéant ou l’importance de l’accueil des Français pour les étudiants étrangers. Que cherchent les étudiants internationaux ? Comment la France se positionne-t-elle face à ses concurrents ? Quels sont ses atouts et handicaps ? Quel rôle joue la langue française dans le choix de la France comme destination d’études ? Quel est le vécu de ces étudiants qui ont choisi la France ? Quel bilan tirent-ils de cette expérience et quels bénéfices, notamment professionnels, en retirent-ils ? Enfin, quels liens conservent-ils avec la France et deviennent-ils des prescripteurs du pays pour les générations d’étudiants suivantes ? Les réponses à ces questions sont autant de clefs permettant d’identifier les leviers pour renforcer l’attractivité de la France comme destination pour les études supérieures. 1 www.campusfrance.org Méthodologie Image et attractivité de la France auprès des étudiants étrangers principaux résultats du baromètre Campus France Échantillon : 19 738 étudiants étrangers dont •11 055 ont prévu de venir en France étudier prochainement (Cohorte 1) ; •4 908 sont actuellement en France pour leurs études (Cohorte 2) ; •3 775 ont fait des études en France (Cohorte 3).
