Abstract

International Student Mobility provides opportunities for acquisition, creation and transfer of knowledge. However, little is known about the students’ impact on the settings they return to. This article examines the impact of Romanian international mobile students on the origin communities. The respondents indicate a positive experience during the mobility, with language and academic knowledge as the main accumulations. Significant differences are detected in terms of students’ impact on the education system and on the working environment. The results emphasize the possible consequences and how the return environments may benefit from the students international experience.
