Description

International Education and Foreign Languages reviews the Department of Education?s Title VI and Fulbright-Hays Programs, which provide higher education funding for international education and foreign language programs.

This book offers a timely look at issues that are increasingly important in an interconnected world.

It discusses the effect of the nation?s lack of expertise in foreign languages and cultural knowledge on national security and global competitiveness and it describes the challenges faced by the U.S. educational system and the federal government in trying to address those needs.

The book also examines the federal government?s recent proposal to create a new National Security Language Initiative, the role of the Department of Education, and current efforts to hold higher education programs accountable.

This book provides information and recommendations that can help universities, educators, and policy makers establish a system of foreign language and international education that is ready to respond to new and unanticipated challenges around the world.
