Brexit brain drain: elite universities say they are losing future research stars

Belgian law professor Geert van Calster is used to approaches from European students who have abandoned plans to do a PhD in Britain with Brexit looming. But a few weeks ago, he got a surprise: a PhD student enrolled at a British university contacted him to say she wanted to jump ship.
Calster, a professor in Leuven University’s Institute of European Law, explains: “She had already started her PhD but was concerned her qualification might not be recognised in Europe after Brexit.” She was also worried because many PhD supervisors were leaving to go abroad, he says.
