Description

For many faculty the desire and need to go abroad is inherent in the nature of their discipline.

For others the thought of going abroad for scholarly purposes is completely alien.

This book, which was sponsored by the Council for International Exchange of Scholars, looks in depth at the international experience of American faculty.

Goodwin and Nacht examine the type of faculty who go abroad and their reasons for doing so, the incentives and the disincentives for faculty travel abroad, the attitudes prevalent on US campuses toward such activities, the special obstacles and risks faced by faculty who commit themselves to an international experience and the effects of foreign experience among the faculty on the internationalisation of US campuses.

In preparing the book, the authors conducted extensive interviews with faculty at thirty-seven institutions of higher education.
