Luncheon with Dr. Ryan Guffey (February 18 2025)
"United States International Higher Education Sector - 2025 Forecast".
A huge thank you to Dr. Ryan Guffey, Director-General of Webster University's Office of Global Campuses, for an insightful and timely discussion on the evolving landscape of international higher education in the United States.
His insightful and highly informative presentation focused on four key factors driving the sector: (1) economic impact, (2) economic capacity building, (3) knowledge transfer and (4) non-US citizen employment vehicles.
With the sector contributing $40 billion to the U.S. economy annually and supporting 378,000 jobs, its impact is undeniable. Our conversation not only explored these economic dimensions but also examined the potential effects of the recent U.S. elections on international students.
The engaging Q&A session highlighted the audience's keen interest and underscored the importance of this topic.
Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to this meaningful dialogue!
