During the last few decades, many university presidents and
provosts have expressed an intent to internationalize their
institutions to equip students with the broad intellectual skills
necessary to succeed in the global twenty-first century. However,
these well-intentioned calls for internationalization have remained
little more than rhetoric. Obstacles embedded in developing faculty
engagement in internationalization are largely responsible for this
inability to turn rhetoric into reality. This groundbreaking second
edition of The Twenty-First Century University identifies what
successful institutions have done to overcome endogenous challenges
and successfully engage faculty in the internationalization
process. The book provides updated case studies on two exemplary
institutions, demonstrating how these institutions operationalized
Childress' "5 I's of Faculty Engagement in Internationalization
Model" (including intentionality, investments, infrastructure,
institutional networks, and individual support) from 2007 through
2017. This book also presents a typology of strategies for faculty
engagement in internationalization that higher education leaders
can use to increase their faculty's international teaching,
research, and service on campus, regionally, and abroad. Finally,
this second edition includes a model of faculty engagement in
internationalization within academic departments that institutional
leaders can use to ensure that explicit connections are made
between internationalization and individual disciplines.
