Why and how Chinese postgraduates choose to study a British programme?

This research is the first study applied a mix method of qualitative and quantitative to investigate the niche market - 'how and why Chinese students have made their choices of enrolling into a British postgraduate Business and Management (B&M)programme'. In my sample, all Chinese participants were selected rigorously, they were studying a postgraduate B&M programme in seven Northwest universities of the UK in the academic year 2011/2012. The empirical findings indicate the paths in their choice processes and the factors/variables attracted the students from China to study the programme in the UK rather than in other countries.
