Title
Dual-degree Education and the Internationalization of Chinese Higher Education: Challenges and Implications
Abstract
Internationalization is a major trend in higher education. It has become a worldwide phenomenon. The internationalization in higher education is the process of integrating an international perspective into a college or university system. The internationalized curricula, the internationalized classrooms, the internationalized campuses, the internationalized talents, and dual degree programs are the hot topics in the current research of the internationalization of higher education. This keynote speech provides an overview of dual degree programs in American higher education as well as the internationalization of Chinese Higher Education. It also reports the results of an empirical study examining undergraduate students’ satisfaction with the English dual degree programs at Wuhan Institute of Technology. Important educational implications are discussed.
