International migration of the highly-skilled is not a new phenomenon. Qualified people have always moved to destinations where they can make the most of their qualities. However, in an increasingly globalised world, not only the numbers have gone up dramatically, but the flows are changing direction as well. The United States, traditionally the most attractive destination, is losing some of its appeal, while at the same time other industrialised countries are competing harder for the scarce talent. In addition, with the economic development of some of the source countries, in particular China and India, these countries are starting to pull back and retain their skilled people. This paper looks at the trends and shifting pattern of highly-skilled people across the globe.

Palabras clave : Migration of highgly skilled human resources; Higher education; Emerging countries.
