Title: Globalization, Internationalization, and Study Abroad
Abstract: This chapter explores the relationship between globalization and the internationalization of higher education. I begin by defining what is meant by globalization, hybridity, and glocalization before discussing the rise of English as a global language and the emergence of global, hybrid identities. I then raise awareness about the multiple, complex effects of globalization on higher education policies and practice. I explore the wide range of internationalization strategies that institutions are employing to meet these growing challenges — both on home campuses and abroad. I explain how this has led to the proliferation of diverse study abroad programs and the spread of English as an international language of education in many parts of the world.
