Research in U.S.-Based Strategies for Education Abroad and International Student Experiences
Liebschutz-Roettger, Elizabeth K.
New Directions for Higher Education, n192 p63-71 Win 2020
International education is a content area with a rich history and yet within the lens of higher education research, is relatively new to the field. While seminal works have historically informed the field, emerging research and scrutiny have led to a better understanding of the overall student experience for international students and education abroad for degree-seeking students. In addition to learning about incoming and out-going student experience, research is also focusing more on the abroad experience as it pertains to student identity, self-efficacy, long-term outcomes, and the necessity for changing historical trends. For international students, the impact of foreign policies continues to influence their experiences as they navigate their education outside of their home country. But even more than their efforts to get to the United States, developing research highlights that international students have a differentiated experience once they arrive on campus from their domestic counterparts. Emerging and future areas of research are also discussed.
