Abstract: We study the dynamics in an educational partnership between a university and a developing region. We examine how the university achieves its goals to improve and advertise its offerings while recruiting a cohort of students from the developing region and maintaining a sustainable relationship with the region and its students. We show that mutually beneficial partnerships can arise, particularly when both the university and the region exhibit strong preferences toward cohort students returning to work at home. We further show that such partnerships can induce developing regions to invest in domestic opportunities for returning students.
