This paper examines the interplay between geopolitical goals, governance and International Student Mobility (henceforth ISM). It explores how the United Kingdom's newly envisaged domestic credit-mobility programme (the Turing Scheme) is reshaping the spatiality of their outward student mobility flows to bolster a global sense of internationalisation through ISM. During its emergence, the Turing Scheme was often positioned as an antithesis to the pre-established Erasmus+ Scheme which had a strong focus on European integration, instead it focused on promoting a ‘Global Britain’ narrative. This paper conducts a content analysis of Hansard (transcripts of debates in the U.K.'s Houses of Parliament), to reflect on ISM decision-making, debating the choices made and unmade regarding the development of the Turing Scheme. This research illuminated multiple issues, adding to the debate about the importance of ISM for geopolitical purposes, and how these can underpin credit-mobility schemes, and shape these during periods of large-scale geopolitical change.

英国脱欧后的国际学生流动选择：英国图灵计划的起源分析

本文探讨了地缘政治目标、治理和国际学生流动性（以下简称 ISM）之间的相互作用。它探讨了英国新设想的国内信贷流动计划（图灵计划）如何重塑学生向外流动的空间，以通过 ISM 增强全球国际化意识。在其出现期间，图灵计划经常被定位为预先制定的伊拉斯谟+计划的对立面，伊拉斯谟+计划重点关注欧洲一体化，相反，它专注于促进“全球化英国”的叙述。本文对 Hansard（英国议会大厦辩论记录）进行内容分析，以反思 ISM 决策，讨论在图灵计划的发展方面做出和未做出的选择。这项研究阐明了多个问题，加剧了关于 ISM 对地缘政治目的重要性的争论，以及这些方案如何支撑信贷流动计划，并在大规模地缘政治变化时期塑造这些计划。
