Postgraduate studies abroad: ¿A forseeable migration?
This contribution aims to incorporate a subjective dimension to the study of students migration in order to understand how some young professionals decide to pursue graduate studies abroad. Consequently, we emphasize the exploration of processes that contribute to the migration from the country of origin from the subjetcts point of view. Two questions guide our reflexion: What are the social and professional dynamics that encourage graduate study abroad? What are the individual's motivations and aspirations to start this migration project? This research is based on 63 biographical and comprehensive interviews made between 2009 and 2011 of young Chilean and Colombian professionals, following their master or doctoral studies in the cities of Paris, New York or Boston.
