Is there a place for a Pro Vice-Chancellor International role at a university’s executive table?

‘The Route to Pro Vice-Chancellor International’ report is primary research based on 138 UK HEIs. It examines whether national regulations and frameworks are needed for internationalisation and global engagement, especially timely with the ambitious UK’s International Education Strategy and the challenges the education sector faces post-coronavirus pandemic.  The report also looks at how the PVC-I role is viewed in institutions, the profile of a PVC-I and the absence of a mapped career path for this position.  In order for PVC-Is to progress to the top of an institution, their skills and attributes as well as synergies across PVC roles need to be understood more widely.  Additionally, the report considers how the role of the PVC-I will look in a post-coronavirus pandemic environment.
