最近一项关于英国学生资格的研究调查了过去20年左右学生人数的显著增长是如何导致学生群居住的城市部分地区的性质发生显著变化的。然而，这些变化并不是孤立发生的：学生也与城市学生区大量的移民流动有关。我研究了与学生高度集中的基础上选择的一组病房相关的移民流动。对进入和离开这些地区的移民的年龄特征的检查支持这样一种观点，即可以做出这样的假设：对于大多数选定的地区，内移民主要是进入系统的新学生，而外移民主要是刚刚毕业的离开系统的学生。新学生到达的具体来源和以前的学生离开的目的地被检查和绘制，并考虑高等教育作为英格兰东南部获得合格工人的机制的作用。
Recent research on studentification in the UK has examined the ways in which significant growth in student numbers over the last twenty years or so have led to marked change in the nature of the parts of cities in which clusters of students live. Yet these changes do not happen in isolation: the students are also associated with major migration flows into and out of studentified parts of cities. I examine the migration flows associated with a set of wards selected on the basis of having a high concentration of students. Examination of the age profiles or migrants into and out of these wards supports an argument that assumptions can be made that, for most of the selected wards, in-migrants are predominantly new students entering the system, whilst out-migrants are predominantly recently graduated students leaving the system. The specific origins from which new students arrive, and destinations to which former students depart, are examined and mapped, and the role of higher education as a mechanism through which the South East of England gains qualified workers is considered.
