The State of Internationalization in Higher Education Institutions Worldwide: A Dialogue Based on Survey Findings: Internationalizing Canadian Campuses. (Plenary Session III)
Membership associations provide an overarching picture of current trends, while stimulating their members to reflect on their own internationalization strategies. This session reports out on internationalization surveys conducted by the American Council on Education; Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada and International Association of Universities. ACE will outline findings from its 2006 national survey of campus internationalization. The survey provides comparative data to a 2001 study. Both surveys examined institutional support for internationalization, academic requirements, programs, and extracurricular activities, faculty policies and opportunities, and international students. AUCC will provide an overview of the state of internationalization of universities in Canada based on key findings from its 2006 internationalization survey. Main areas examined will be: student mobility, internationalization of the curriculum, export of educational products and services, international development cooperation and international research collaboration. IAU's 3rd survey exercise (in progress) will collect information from institutions and associations of higher education throughout the world. Following a brief overview of the 2005 findings, IAU will focus on aspects where regional and institutional differences were found according to the Human Development Index.
