Title	International students and motivation to study at postgraduate level – some evidence from China
Słowa kluczowe
Key words	international students, international branch campuses, students’ decision, influencers, motivators
Abstrakt
Abstract	This paper investigates reasons why students decide to study abroad, taking into consideration push, pull and individual psychological factors. The research took place in China in a European university branch in Shanghai, where international students weresurveyed. Although up to date there was a lot of research on international students’ motivations to study abroad, testing various push and pull factors models, and there is only one piece of research looking specifically at students motivations with regards to international branch campuses but at Arabic context. The gap created the opportunity for the present investigation. This paper is the first piece of research that examines international students’ motivations to select a European university branch in China. The findings indicate that pull factors could be more important in influencing students to study at international branches of European universities.

Tytuł	Insights into the choice and decision making to study at a selected British university in the example of Polish students at the university global fair in Poland
Title
Słowa kluczowe
Key words	Polish students, UK Higher Education, study motivation, push factors, pull factors
Abstrakt
Abstract	The paper investigates what motivates Polish students to study in the UK. The research is based on Polish students who attended the University Global Fair in Warsaw, Poland in 2015, and were inclined to study at one British university in north-west England. The paper examines these students’ motivation for their choice and investigates their decision-making process in this case. According to the literature, two main types of factors influence students’ decision-making process: push and pull factors. Push factors are created by the students’ country of origin, and are the ones that persuade them to move abroad. Pull factors, in turn, are those which operate within the host country and encourage students to consider it as their new residence Though the UK is one of the main destinations to study for Polish students, little research has been done on this particular group. That gap created the opportunity for the present investigation, for which I interviewed a group of students. Their answers indicate that, contrary to what a number of other studies have suggested, pull factors could be more important in influencing Polish students to study at British universities.

Słowa kluczowe	ekonomika rolnictwa, migracje zewnętrzne, obszary wiejskie
Key words	agricultural economics, external migrations, rural areas.
Abstrakt	Artykuł prezentuje skutki migracji ludności obszarów wiejskich w aspekcie ekonomicznym i społecznym. W opracowaniu, poza zdefiniowaniem zjawiska migracji zewnętrznych na tle współczesnych tendencji społecznych, zaprezentowano zestawienie motywów migracyjnych z uwzględnieniem czynników wypychających (kraj macierzysty) oraz przyciągających (kraj goszczący) w odniesieniu do trzech płaszczyzn: ekonomiczno-demograficznej, politycznej i społeczno-kulturowej. W dalszej kolejności sporo miejsca poświęcono ekonomicznym skutkom przepływu ludności z punktu widzenia funkcjonowania państw dotkniętych masową migracją. W części empirycznej skupiono się na analizie wyników badań przeprowadzonych metodą ankietową na grupie blisko 100 osób podejmujących zagraniczne wyjazdy zarobkowe
Abstract	The article presents the outcomes of rural dwellers’ migrations in the economic and social aspect. Apart from defining the phenomenon of external migration against the background of current social trends, also a review of motives for migration including the push factors (home country) and the pull factors (host country) in three aspects: economic-demographic, political and socio-cultural are presented. Furthermore, the economic effects of population flows from the perspective of functioning of the countries affected by mass emigration are discussed extensively. The empirical part of the article is focused on an analysis of results of studies conducted on a group of approximately 100 person involved in economic emigration. Respondents, whose permanent place of residence is South- Eastern part of Poland, have most frequently chosen the USA or Canada as the target country, whereas in Europe they migrated to Ireland, Germany and the United Kingdom. Willingness to improve their material status, the threatening unemployment or continuation of education prevailed among the reasons for migration. These elements were also most frequently indicated as positive outcomes of the decisions, whereas an additional asset of the emigration was an improvement of one’s status in the society or better chances for professional promotion, but also a cognitive motive. On the other hand the respondents pointed to negative results of migration, among which social effects like trauma caused by prolonged separation from the family, loosened family bonds or health injuries, and in the economic aspect the considerable costs incurred by the mobility
