Description
Summary:The internationalization of higher education is an important agenda explored and undertaken by public and private universities to improve the quality of education as well as the skills and competencies of graduates. There is great potential for cross-border engagement and internationalization efforts in the context of higher education in ASEAN countries and Pakistan. In this case study, the discussion on strategies and initiatives to embrace higher education at the university level is not limited to the goals and needs of higher education institutions but is also guided by the views and priorities of the country’s economic and strategic development. This has implications for how individual universities design their policies and implement initiatives at the institutional level and their strategic direction for internationalization.
