Constructing the higher education student: a comparative study of six European countries (EuroStudents)

Europe has over 35 million students, but to date there has been no clear insight into the extent to which understandings of ¡°the student¡± are shared. This project will explore how the modern higher education student is conceptualised and whether this varies across and within nations. It is hoped the study will challenge assumptions about common interpretations of ¡°the student¡± across Europe, which underpin initiatives such as increasing cross-border educational mobility. Looking at Denmark, England, Ireland, Germany, Poland and Spain, the team aims to discover how understandings of the higher education student are produced, shaped and disseminated by policymakers, the media and higher education institutions, and how students of different national and social backgrounds understand the higher education student. It will also consider to what extent students¡¯ understandings are consonant with those of policymakers, the media and higher education institutions.
