Spain has recently conducted a research on existing TNE links between UK and Spain. The research has given a very good insight in existing arrangements and, most important, what are the expectations of institutions at both ends.

The UK-Spain higher education relationship is dynamic and embraces the full range of cooperation that might be expected between internationally successful national higher education sectors. Activities involved include long-term student mobility and recruitment, research cooperation (including for universities and industry), short-term student and staff exchanges, joint & dual degrees, TNE, distance education and language study.

The research for this study clearly indicated a strong interest from both UK and Spanish universities to extend collaboration and reinforce their current good ties.
