Post-graduates are to be wooed by a range of international and national universities at an event in London this weekend.

The event offers an opportunity for those interested in masters and PhD study overseas to meet university admissions staff from all over the world. Universities from Australia, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, The Netherlands, UK and the US will visit London to meet prospective postgraduate students.

In 2005, over 2,500,000 international students were enrolled at universities outside of their own country, according to the latest figures available from United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. This represents growth in the number of students participating in international study of 41 per cent over the last five years.

The most popular destinations for international students in the world are currently the US (565,039), China (343,126), the UK (318,000), Germany (240,620), France (221,560) and Australia (144,733).
