Drivers of and Speculation over the Future of Higher Education Internationalization

  • Chapter
Global and Local Internationalization

Part of the book series: Transgressions: Cultural Studies and Education ((GPHE))

Abstract

This chapter speculates on the future directions of higher education internationalization. It is driven by data related to the development of global higher education capacity in teaching/learning and research/scholarship as well as considering changes being imposed on higher education generally. Speculation centers on the futures of: mobility patterns and flows; cross border institutional competition and collaboration; patterns of multi-mission and comprehensive internationalization; rising expectations of accountability not only for higher education generally, but in outcomes and impacts from internationalization; and changing mixes of decision makers and priorities driving cross-border engagements.
