We invite bidders to propose a detailed and effective methodology that best meets our research objectives within the outlined timelines and budget.
The overall aim of the research is to understand the operating environment for transnational education (TNE) at the higher education level in Egypt.
The British Council is interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the TNE operating environment in Egypt at the higher education level, including relevant policies, student demand, current and potential scale, financial feasibility, competition, and likely future developments in this area. The outputs of this research will be used to provide reliable and up-to-date information to the UK education sector as well as helping the British Council to better design policies to support UK universities' activities in this area. The research will also assist policy makers in Egypt to assess the impact of the TNE regulations introduced in 2018, whether they are achieving the intended outcomes and whether additional changes are needed to maximise partnership opportunities between the UK and Egypt.
We anticipate this research will include both desk research (including reviewing government policies, universities' descriptions of their existing programmes and relevant third-party research) and primary research with government officials, education providers, business partners and other relevant stakeholders. It is possible that some relevant information will only be available in Arabic.

Several shocks have hit a world economy already weakened by the pandemic: higher-than-expected inflation worldwide triggering tighter financial conditions; a worse-than-anticipated slowdown in China, and negative spill overs from Russia's invasion of Ukraine. This research project will seek to explore how the current global economic slowdown is likely to impact on global flows of internationally mobile students over the next 2-5 years; which of the major source markets for international students are most exposed, what are the specific risk factors to monitor across the UK's main source markets, and what are the potential economic impacts facing the UK HE sector under various outlook scenarios?
