Internationalisation of higher education (IoHE) is a prominent global trend, with a growing number of institutions and countries aiming to attract diverse student populations and enhance their international outlook. While Europe has made significant progress in this regard, there is still considerable variation in the level of internationalisation
among higher education institutions within individual countries. This project will focus on IoHE in Portugal, a ‘catching-up’ country when compared to other major players in the global market of international education and will examine the potential for mutual learning and transferability of promising practices between different institutions. The core argument is that various higher education institutions have successful and diverse practices regarding internationalisation, but they do not effectively exchange knowledge and experiences with each other, leading to missed opportunities for learning and improvement at an institutional level. This project aims, therefore, to understand how IoHE is defined, implemented, and experienced in Portugal, and to identify the barriers and facilitators to mutual learning and knowledge transfer in this context. Against this background, the current project has three core objectives:
Objective 1 – provide a comprehensive analysis of the ways in which internationalisation is defined and understood at three different levels: macro – European; meso – national; and micro – institutional.
Objective 2 – identify internationalisation practices implemented in Portuguese higher education institutions (HEIs) and assess their potential for mutual learning and transferability.
Objective 3 – examine barriers and facilitators to mutual learning on internationalisation and the transferability of promising practices between different HEIs in Portugal.
To achieve these objectives, a combination of diverse methods will be employed, such as document analysis, surveys, interviews with key stakeholders, policy Delphi, and case studies of successful internationalisation practices in Portuguese higher education institutions. The ultimate goal of this project is to provide evidence-based recommendations to institutions on how they can enhance their internationalisation efforts through collaborative learning and sharing of best practices, fostering a more inclusive, multicultural, and internationally-oriented higher education landscape in Portugal.
