Students, graduates and universities interact with their regional environment in a number of ways. Regions offer institutions of higher education a potential for strategic development, while these institutions, in turn, actively influence regional development. Different student groups differ in their regional mobility behaviour. Before summarising the state of research on the regional mobility of students and graduates, this introductory chapter presents research findings on the importance of universities for the regions and the structural development of university regions in Germany. |
