2017年英国新签证吸引杰出留学生 或能替代PSW

　　International students who have shown entrepreneurial flair while on courses at UK universities will be allowed to stay on in the country to develop their ideas, Damian Green, the immigration minister, has announced.

　　英国移民部长达米安•格林(Damian Green)宣布，在英国大学留学期间展露出企业家才华的国际学生，将获准留在英国发展自己的创意。这意味着新推出的英国杰出人才签证或能替代PSW签证。

　　In a speech yesterday, Mr Green signalled that the Home Office was addressing criticisms of its decision to close the post-study work route, which allowed graduates to stay in the UK for two years after the end of their course to find a job. It is introducing a 12-month visa to allow exceptional students to remain once their studies have ended.

　　格林在昨天的一次讲话中表示，英国内政部(Home Office)正在回应各界对其决定取消毕业后就业制度的批评，该制度曾允许毕业生在学业结束后继续留在英国2年找工作。内政部正要推出一种有效期12个月的签证，允许优秀学生在学习结束后留在英国。

　　The new route, open to non-European Union students who have developed a business idea under supervision at university, will be available from next April, Mr Green told an audience at the Policy Exchange think-tank. “Now that we have moved away from the old model of mass, unselective immigration, we can develop the system to encourage the brightest and best to come here,” he said.

　　格林在智囊机构“政策交流”(Policy Exchange)向听众表示，这一新制度面向在大学指导下发展出商业创意的非欧盟学生，将从4月起实行。“鉴于我们已经摆脱了老式的大规模、无选择性的移民，现在我们可以发展合适的制度，鼓励最聪明、最优秀的人士来到英国，”他表示。

　　Each application will have to be sponsored by a university and can be extended to run for a maximum of two years.

　　此类签证申请必须得到大学的支持，最高可延长至2年。
