Teaching Business Classes Abroad: How International Experience Benefits Faculty, Students, and Institutions
Miglietti, Cynthia
Journal of Teaching in International Business, v26 n1 p46-55 2015
International educational experiences can provide benefits for faculty members as well as higher education institutions and their students. The opportunity to lecture and conduct research with colleagues at universities in other countries can foster the globalization or internationalization of academic teaching, the advancement of knowledge, and cooperation among institutions. Research has shown that the experience abroad helps educators to gain a more global perspective that will enhance business classes. This article will show that a Fulbright experience abroad helps faculty to lead business students to be more knowledgeable and aware of international issues and global concerns.
