Special Issue: Internationalization and university curricula in Denmark and Japan
Abstract
Abstract:
Universities are increasingly required to provide an education for students that
enables them to acquire global knowledge, skills and languages, so that they can perform
professionally and socially in an international and multicultural context. Although the
situation varies according to the country, many universities have identified
internationalization of the curriculum as a priority in promoting their global
competitiveness. Danish and Japanese universities are presented here as two examples,
of old and highly homogeneous nation states, struggling with best practice and how to
move forward with this objective.
