It addresses the specific elements of the internationalization process, such as mobility, curriculum, linkages, and networks. Rather than investigating these issues in detail, however, it examines them as part of a more comprehensive overview of policies, programs, and activities at all three levels. The volume examines these elements and the broader process of internationalization in the context of the overall development of higher education. It analyzes the potential contribution of internationalization to institution and nation building, examining such issues as the implications of trade, new forms of delivery, new providers, and the relevance of accreditation and quality assurance for higher education and their international dimensions.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACADEMIC EXCHANGEACADEMIC ORGANIZATIONACADEMIC PROGRAMSACADEMIC YEARACCREDITATIONACTIVE PARTICIPATIONADDITIONAMERICAN UNIVERSITIESASSOCIATE PROFESSORBIOLOGYBRAIN DRAINCAPACITY BUILDINGCENTRAL AMERICACOMPARATIVE EDUCATIONCOMPLEXITYCONTINUING EDUCATIONCORPORATE UNIVERSITIESCOUNTRY STUDIESCURRICULUMDEGREE PROGRAMSDELIVERY OF EDUCATIONDOCTORAL DEGREESEDUCATIONEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONSEDUCATIONAL PLANNINGEDUCATIONAL QUALITYELEMENTSEMPLOYMENTENGINEERINGFOREIGN STUDENTSFOREIGN UNIVERSITIESGENDER DISTRIBUTIONGEOGRAPHYGOVERNMENT GRANTSGRADUATE EDUCATIONHIGHER EDUCATIONHIGHER EDUCATION ENROLLMENTHIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONSHIGHER EDUCATION PROGRAMSHIGHER LEARNINGHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENTHUMANITIESINSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATIONINTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITIESINTERNATIONAL EDUCATIONINTERNATIONAL HIGHER EDUCATIONINTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR MIGRATIONKNOWLEDGE SOCIETYLANGUAGESLATIN AMERICANLEARNING PROCESSLEVEL OF EDUCATIONLIFELONG LEARNINGMASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATIONMBAMEANINGMINISTRY OF EDUCATIONNATIONAL AUTONOMOUS UNIVERSITYNATIONAL INNOVATION SYSTEMSNATIONAL UNIVERSITIESPEDAGOGYPHILOSOPHYPRIVATE HIGHER EDUCATIONPRIVATE HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONSPRIVATE INSTITUTIONSPRIVATE UNIVERSITIESPROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONSPROFESSIONAL PROGRAMSPROFESSIONAL TRAININGPROFESSOR EMERITUSPROFESSORSPUBLIC UNIVERSITIESQUALITY ASSURANCEQUALITY OF HIGHER EDUCATIONRATES OF RETURNREADINGRESEARCH CAPACITYRESEARCH CENTERSRESEARCH COOPERATIONSCHOLARSSCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMSCHOLARSHIPSSCIENCESCIENTISTSCIENTISTSSECONDARY SCHOOLSOCIAL SCIENCESSOCIOLOGYSOUTH AMERICASPEAKINGSTUDENT EXCHANGESTUDENT EXCHANGESSTUDENT MOBILITYSTUDY ABROADTEACHERSTEACHINGTEACHING STAFFTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENTTECHNOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGEUNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMSUNDERGRADUATE STUDENTUNIVERSITIESUNIVERSITY ACCREDITATIONUNIVERSITY COOPERATIONUNIVERSITY COUNCILUNIVERSITY EDUCATIONUNIVERSITY PROGRAMSUNIVERSITY STUDENTSWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-6209-9
