DESCRIPTION:Riccardo De Vita\, Manchester Metropolitan. NETWORK RESILIENC
 E IN HIGHER EDUCATION: AN ANALYSIS OF INTERNATIONAL BRANCH CAMPUSES\nInt
 ernational Branch Campuses (IBCs) are one of the most prominent manifest
 ations of globalisation in the Higher Education sector. Their diffusion 
 grew exponentially in recent years\, despite concerns about their financ
 ial viability and the challenges posed on them by recent events. Using S
 ocial Network Analysis\, and framing IBCs as Foreign Direct Investments\
 , the resilience of the global network of IBCs is studied over time. Res
 ults reveal a growing resilience of the network\, but changes over time 
 in terms of the relative importance of different countries. In a field d
 ominated by qualitative studies\, our research provides contribution to 
 the literature\, methodological advancements and implications for both p
 olicy makers and university management.
