| Popis: | The chapter describes the content and value of the mobility capital, which is activated by Russian students in the field of the Arctic region education and research. The survey, held among the Northern Arctic Federal University (NArFU) students in 2014, examines the value that they place on an international educational experience, their preferences for study-abroad opportunities, their perceptions of and attitudes toward the mobility capital (competences, skills, and knowledges), valuable at the Arctic region international cooperation field. The study tests the hypothesis, that the Russian student mobility capital (represented by NArFU sample) demonstrates specific combination of variables: the motivation for personal mobility experience gaining, incorporation to the university structured (and provided by the institutional organizational efforts) mobility patterns, quantity and quality of the skills, facilitating mobility and the students’ self-esteem as “mobile individuals”. As a result, the international education mobility of the Russian students is interpreted as a number of resources (available at cultural, social, economic and symbolic contexts), in which the students invest, and which can be converted into one another to maximize the effectiveness of one’s mobility quantity and quality. |
