This volume examines the diverse ways universities and colleges
around the world are partnering and collaborating with other
institutions to fulfill their missions and visions. University
partnerships not only include collaborations between universities
but also include university-school (basic education) collaborative
partnerships to improve local school systems. The increasing
pressures to remove access and participation barriers, and the
increasing pressures to mitigate practices that restrict the free
flow of education across borders have created a growing global
space for educational services of all types. As a result,
traditional institutional boundaries have expanded to better
respond to increasing pressures placed on them by the growing
demand for higher education services. The boundaries between
educational institutions and other entities such as government,
business, and non-profit organizations have become more fluid and
this has resulted in increased involvement by institutions,
faculty, and students in activities outside the traditional
boundaries of the classroom. This edited volume will specifically
explore university partnerships for international development.
