Abstract

Students’ mobility phenomenon affects several aspects, such as demographic and economic ones, and when the balance of the movement is negative for a particular region, socioeconomic problems can arise. Driven by the better socioe-conomic conditions of some areas, in Italy, thousands of students every year leave the South to study in the Centre-North. Such a process worsens the historical and socioeconomic gap between the North and South. This paper investigates how some social, economic and educational aspects can encourage students to move. We considered different official data and statistics merged together. Results highlight the impact of job-market and scholarship support and hint at a chain migration effect on student mobility.
