The drive to internationalize higher education has seen the focus
shift in recent years towards its defining element, the curriculum.
As the point of connection between broader institutional strategies
and the student experience, the curriculum plays a key role in the
success or failure of the internationalization agenda. Yet despite
much debate, the role and power of curriculum internationalization
is often unappreciated. This has meant that critical questions,
including what it means and how it can be achieved in different
disciplines, have not been consistently or strategically addressed.
This volume breaks new ground in connecting theory and practice in
internationalizing the curriculum in different disciplinary and
institutional contexts. An extensive literature review, case
studies and action research projects provide valuable insights into
the concept of internationalization of the curriculum. Best
practice in curriculum design, teaching and learning in higher
education are applied specifically to the process of
internationalizing the curriculum. Examples from different
disciplines and a range of practical resources and ideas are
provided. Topics covered include: why internationalize the
curriculum?; designing internationalized learning outcomes; using
student diversity to internationalize the curriculum; blockers and
enablers to internationalization of the curriculum; assessment in
an internationalized curriculum; connecting internationalization of
the curriculum with institutional goals and student learning.
Internationalizing the Curriculum provides invaluable guidance to
university managers, academic staff, professional development
lecturers and support staff as well as students and scholars
interested in advancing theory and practice in this important area.

Co-published with AIEAInternational higher education has evolved,
in some respects dramatically, in the decade since publication of
the first edition of this handbook. The new issues, trends,
practices and priorities of research that evolved over this time
have in some instances been transformed by one of the most dynamic
and tumultuous periods in the history of international higher
education, brought on by the pandemic, a re-emergence of
nationalism, and the recognition of the power imbalances between
the developed economies and the global south, and racial inequities
within and across borders. This new edition addresses the myriad
changes across all aspects of international education, each chapter
addressing to the extent possible the reality of the present in
which they were written and offering some insights for the future.
While updating a number of chapters from the first edition, it also
includes a preponderance of new chapters written by contributors
representing wider and more diverse backgrounds. In keeping with
the first edition, the overall message is that the
internationalization of higher education has a vital role to play
in a world that is more interconnected than ever before.
Recognizing changing economic, geopolitical, climatic, and public
health issues, as well as the importance of international and
cross-cultural collaboration to address global problems, this
handbook offers a comprehensive range of models, data and ideas to
stimulate new directions in the conception and practice of
international education. This edition reflects today's concerns
around inclusion, diversity and equity, and how international
education is being changed by issues such as decolonization, the
focus on learning outcomes, the impact of digital tools to enhance
access and learning and collaboration such a virtual exchange,
competition for resources, risk, new patterns of mobility, and new
models such as joint programs and qualifications. As with the first
edition, the chapters often intentionally pair scholars and
practitioners from different parts of the world, and include text
boxes that highlight concrete institutional, national, or regional
experiences, providing diverse voices and perspectives from around
the world. This comprehensive new edition provides ideas, concepts,
theories and practical ideas from around the world for those
seeking to enhance the quality of the three core functions of
higher education: teaching, research and service to society. It
constitutes an essential resource for everyone involved in the
delivery of international education and in determining its future
direction.
