This chapter investigates the importance of imaginative geographies and student choice. It considers how these are developed historically, and can often reflect uneven power relationships between different locations. This chapter shows how these are often linked to understandings of excellence but can also focus on romanticised notions of various different locations. The chapter demonstrates that student mobility is therefore not only the result of economic, carefully considered thoughts on the “value” of the higher education they will receive, but also on the basis of factors relating to the location and the places of their higher education experience. |
