Isto é particularmente verdade no que concerne ao mercado internacional relacionado com as mobilidades dos estudantes do ensino superior, mercado este com características muito específicas e que se encontra em expansão. Este artigo descreve a natureza específica do mercado de estudantes do ensino superior que viaja por motivos educacionais, a sua dimensão actual, os padrões geográficos de mobilidade à escala internacional – identificando os principais destinos e países geradores – e tendências que se desenham na formação destes fluxos. É dada especial atenção às mobilidades estudantis de carácter organizado que ocorrem no âmbito do ERASMUS e à participação portuguesa neste Programa. Os dados mostram que Portugal é um dos poucos países que tem gerado um crescente número de estudantes, desempenhando um importante papel quer como país gerador quer como receptor destas mobilidades. Procede-se a uma caracterização pormenorizada da evolução dos fluxos de estudantes portugueses e dos actuais fluxos de estudantes ERASMUS existentes entre Portugal e outros países, bem como a uma análise comparativa da participação portuguesa e da participação de outros países no âmbito do programa ERASMUS.DEGEIT - Universidade de Aveiro2023-07-25T10:47:08Z2007-01-01T00:00:00Z2007-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/38994eng1645-926110.34624/rtd.v0i7/8.13781Carneiro, Maria JoãoMalta, Paula Alexandrainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-31T01:53:31ZPortal AgregadorONG |
