摘要

随着越来越多的工作需要学历，许多政府都在寻找受过高等教育的移民。这项研究是根据最近收集的2018年至2020年香港受过高等教育的中国大陆移民的数据得出的。我们探讨了高学历移民的入境签证类别、当前经历和未来预期与他们留下的意愿之间的关系。研究结果表明，他们移民经历的所有三个方面都与他们留下的意愿有关。调查结果还表明，移民政策，特别是签证类别，在高技术移民留下的意愿中起着重要作用。因此，政府应注意可能影响香港高等教育人才保留的签证类型和每年签发的签证数量。

Entry visa categories, current experiences and future expectations of highly educated migrants and their intention to stay

With more jobs requiring educational credentials, highly educated migrants are sought by many governments. This study is drawn from recently collected data between 2018 and 2020 in Hong Kong on highly educated migrants from Mainland China. We explored how entry visa categories, current experience and future expectation of highly educated migrants are related to their intention to stay. The findings suggest that all three aspects of their migration experience are related to their intention to stay. The findings also indicate that immigration policies, in particular visa categories, play a significant role in the intention of highly skilled migrants to stay. Thus, the government should pay attention to the types of visas that are likely to influence the retention of the highly educated in Hong Kong and the number of visas that are issued each year.
