This course will introduce students to the basics of comprehensive campus internationalization, with a primary focus on U.S. higher education. Through a careful reading of recent literature, institutional case analyses, intensive “committee” work and peer review, and comparative benchmarking research, students will produce a robust vision statement for comprehensive internationalization at a targeted U.S. institution. Students will examine best practices, identify emerging trends in five professional knowledge communities (as identified by NAFSA), critique innovative strategies, and recognize existing barriers to advancing comprehensive campus internationalization. This course would be particularly appropriate for those pursuing professional careers in international education, higher education leadership, and comparative higher education.
