Synopsis

This is a guide for anyone considering a move into international higher education. It explores the journeys and experiences of those within international higher education and offers perspectives, advice, and guidance on how to navigate issues such as partnership development, cultural interaction, international working environments, and distance.

This is both an insightful and practical book that provides a unique perspective by drawing upon international case studies and highlighting key factors and issues for navigating international higher education. The book examines the realities and lived experiences of transnational education activity through the lens of a journey. It is constructed around three key stages of travel: preparation, getting there, getting home again. The book draws on case studies and first-hand perspectives to provide the reader with guidance on how to navigate the different aspects of international higher education travel and work. A diverse group of stakeholders including students, academics, administrators, and leaders discuss their experiences and provide reflections and lessons learned.

This engaging book will be of interest to anyone considering embarking on a transnational education journey, as a practitioner, a policy maker, as well as university leaders and prospective international students.
