For decades, Germany has been a leading host country for international students, particularly from Asia in the 21st century. This influx presents challenges for students, their home countries, and Germany itself, as they navigate conflicting expectations and uncertainties. Students strive to adapt to life in Germany, while their home countries question the value of investing in their education abroad and how to entice graduates back. Meanwhile, Germany seeks to retain qualified graduates in high-demand fields. This volume addresses these critical questions, making it relevant for all stakeholders involved. Beatrice Knerr, a professor at the University of Kassel, leads the Department of Development Economics, Migration and Agricultural Policy (DEMAP). She holds a PhD from Kiel University and has published extensively on labor migration and mobility, including ten monographs and numerous articles. The co-authors, including Zhao Xi, Tingting Ma, Rebecca Tlatlik, Sudeh Dehnavi, Robert Sibarani, Wildan Syafitri, Ranjita Nepal, and Sadaf Mahmood, were PhD students at DEMAP during the research and have since graduated, with some returning home while others remain in Germany or have relocated.
