Higher Education Internationalization

Higher Education Internationalization (HEI) is the process of integrating an international dimension into the teaching, research and service areas of higher education.

My research has examined the opportunities and challenges created by internationalization for universities, including international service learning, global engagement, and institutional strategies for internationalization. I aim to better understand how universities can engage globally while serving students, communities, and the public good.
