Cet &#233;v&#233;nement a &#233;t&#233; report&#233;PresentationThe conference is organised as part of the research project &#8220;L&#8217;accueil des nouveaux &#233;tudiants en Europe : comparaison France-Angleterre&#8221; at Universit&#233; Lumi&#232;re Lyon 2 (ECP laboratory). This project, which is funded by Idex UDL, investigates welcome practice and openness to incoming students in England and France. The conference explores the notion of &#8220;welcome&#8221; at university in its broader sense, including practical and pedagogical support offered to first-year students and students in international mobility in both countries. It also includes reflection on who is included/excluded in the university discourses about students and would-be students. A key question for the conference relates to the role of higher education institutions themselves in adapting to the needs of the students.This one-day international conference brings together higher education researchers based in France and the UK on the topic of &#8220;welcoming/accueil&#8220;- who is welcomed and how students are supported in their transitions to university. It is organised by the research project &#8220;L&#8217;accueil des nouveaux &#233;tudiants en Europe: comparaison France-Angleterre&#8221;, which investigates practice and openness to incoming students in both countries. The project is based at ECP research laboratory, Universit&#233; Lumi&#232;re Lyon 2). The conference language will be English.The conference will explore the notion of &#8220;welcome&#8221; at university in its broader sense, including practical and pedagogical support offered to first-year students and students on international mobility programmes. It will reflect on the role of higher education institutions and transnational organisations in defining and attending to the needs of students in France and the UK. A key question for the conference relates to the discursive process of inclusion/exclusion of students and would-be students, in the context of increasing internationalisation of education and growing managerialism and marketisation of universities &#8211; the current legislative draft of the French national research programme (Loi de programmation pluriannuelle de la recherch&#233;) seems to be an example of these processes.The conference language will be English.Programme1st April 2020 &#8211; Espace Marc Bloch, MSH Lyon St-Etienne, 14 avenue Berthelot 69 007 LYON9.30-10.00 Tea and coffee10.00-10.15 Opening remarks by Stephane Simonian, Universit&#233; Lumi&#232;re Lyon 210.15-11.00 Agn&#232;s van Zanten, CNRS-Sciences Po Paris: &#8216;Gatekeeping through marketing discourses in an era of more open gates to higher education: websites, open doors and higher education fairs in France&#8217;11.00-11.30 Stephen Parker, University of Glasgow: &#8216;Theorising student transition and aspiration and as capabilities for navigating education systems&#8217;11.30-12.00 Germ&#225;n Fernandez-Vavrik, Universit&#233; Lumi&#232;re Lyon 2: &#8216;&#8221;Welcome practices&#8221; for incoming undergraduates in France and England.
