摘要

The majority of the Asian countries have started internationalisation of higher educationChinainternationalisation of higher education (IoHE) studies to strengthen their foundational and industrial competencies. In the same direction, IndiaInternationalisationIndia higher education reforms has recently implemented the National Educational Policy 2020 (Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India, 2020) rooted in its socio-cultural belief system. Interestingly, the policy spans implementation strategies for the entire educational system of the country—primary, secondary and higher education. This chapter focuses on policy tenets related to IoHE, fulfilling the country’s futuristic goals of institutional and student mobilisation. The study uses qualitative analysis and theoretical synthesis of concepts to identify overlaps between policy objectives and implementation strategies. The results highlight various transition arrangements for higher educational institutions (HEI) that guide contemporary course conceptualisation for collaborative degree programmes. Furthermore, the author has reviewed selected policies or initiatives for IoHE in China, Japan, Malaysia and Singapore. Contrasting these policies provides an insight into factors for policy initiation, implementation and collaboration options for each selected Asian country. The brief comparison suggests that IoHE practices vary from country to country, despite the analytical framework being the same. Since the implementation of IoHE relies on policy and regulatory intersections, a background and definitions of certain constructs have been included at the start.
