Broadening Horizons. The past year has seen a significant development in the university’s efforts to support widening participation learners to become internationally mobile. Following a piece of internal research examining the background of students undertaking study abroad opportunities at King’s, and considering this alongside the available HESA data, we have established the Broadening Horizons Award to ensure that the additional costs of mobility (notably flights, but also visas and other travel-related expenses) are not a barrier to these opportunities. Supporting this endeavour, the university has established a widening participation-orientated role in the central Study Abroad Office, who will both administer the awards and provide additional activities and support to assist learners. These include one-to-one advice and guidance, pre-departure preparation and drop-in sessions which help widening participation students consider their various options, complete the necessary applications, book flights, and leverage any further funding available, such as through Student Finance England. Additionally, based on research from the International Unit, we have trialled a short-term (4 day) leadership experience in the summer of 2016 which will see approximately 25 low-income students work on a real-world challenge facing the leaders of one of the world’s most global cities: Kuala Lumpur. These students will be both the forerunners for what we hope will be an annual opportunity, and a focus group to establish whether short-term mobility can lead to longer periods of mobility later in a student’s education. It remains a fundamental aim of our international strategy that all King’s students, no matter their socio-economic background, should experience some form of outward mobility to enhance their period of study and increase employability. Engagement with curricular, co-curricular and extra- curricular experiences allows learners to develop key graduate attributes, skills and intercultural competences and we will continue to develop new options to ensure that low income students have access to these opportunities. King’s College London students achieve very good initial employment outcomes, as measured by the Destination of Leavers of Higher Education annual survey (DHLE). According to the most recent survey (2013-14), 94.8% of UK domiciled first degree graduates were in employment or further study six months after graduation, a figure which places us fifth in the Xxxxxxx Group.
