A new report highlights the importance of retaining international students in the Philadelphia area. Despite the challenges of finding local employment, these graduates represent a valuable source of talent for regional employers and a potential solution for the higher education system's enrollment struggles.
Retaining more international students could also be a"lifeline" for higher education institutions amid enrollment challenges, notes a new report.
Still, many of these students find work outside of the region, and many don’t find work at all, the report indicates. “We have this looming impediment coming, and we need to find some solutions,” Keyes said. “Here is this excellent match between supply and demand.”
