In Michigan, we hear a lot of discussion about the challenge of keeping talented, young workers in the state after they graduate from college. According to a new report out last week from the Global Talent Retention Initiative of Michigan (GTRI), one area where Michigan might have a leg up on other places is international talent retention.
The report by GTRI—the nation’s first international student retention effort of its kind— says Michigan’s international students are choosing to stay in Michigan after graduation at three times the rate of out-of-state students.
