Study UK Exhibition Tour October 2019 - Post-event Report

The Study UK Exhibition Tour returned to Pakistan in October 2019. This year, the exhibition not only went bigger but better as well. We ventured into three cities: Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad with the largest cohort of UK institutions coming to Pakistan to connect with students through exhibitions, campus counselling visits and networking activities. The Study UK Exhibition Tour had participation from 26 UK higher education institutions and an audience outreach of 7500+ via open-to-public exhibitions and campus visits, making it the biggest tour to take place in Pakistan to date.

This exhibition was designed to be a single-stop and successful recruitment platform for UK institutions looking to recruit or build sustainable partnerships in Pakistan and provide an opportunity to gain local market knowledge by meeting School Counsellors. It provided a platform for UK institutions to promote their institution and showcase their courses and provide a forum where they can interact and counsel prospective students and interact with the representatives from the education sector of Pakistan. For more details, please find the attached report.

At British Council, we always look forward to hosting you and arranging promotional and recruitment events for you. The target audience in Pakistan welcomes this interaction with you on British Council platforms.

We keep the health and safety of all our visitors, staff and the communities in which we operate our top priority. Due to Covid-19, we are evaluating the situation of our up coming events and are looking for alternative solutions to continue to support institutions in their international student recruitment. Aided by a widespread network of counsellors working at school and university levels, educational consultants, head of departments, govt. officials etc, we are keen to support UK HEIs in reaching prospective international students here in Pakistan, and with this in mind we intend to shortly release details of virtual programmes and services to engage students. Please keep visiting the International Education Services portal to view the latest information in this regards.
