Today we are talking about the introduction of tuition fees for non-European students in Sweden and the impact of the new policy from 2011. We speak with Per A. Nilsson, an analyst at the Planning Office of Umeå University and former member of the Association of Swedish Higher Education Institution’s expert group for internationalisation issues, and Professor Lars Westin, professor in regional economics at Umeå University’s Centre for Regional Science.
