1. INTERNATIONALIZATION OF APRU UNIVERSITIES -LOCAL PRACTICES AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS- *Based on materials presented by Professor Wan-hua Ma, Peking U. and Professor K. Ravi Kumar, USC at the APRU Workshop which was co-sponsored by Peking University & USC, Feb 25-27, 2004 Summary Report for APRU Senior Staff Meeting Stanford University, April 13-15, 2004 Richard Drobnick, University of Southern California*

2. APRU Internationalization Workshop, Beijing, February 2004 Survey Objectives to have APRU members know each other’s “current internationalization strategies” both at the university level and school level to have APRU members learn from each other’s “best-practices” in the internationalization of teaching, research, and outreach activities to increase collaboration among APRU members on such internationalization activities.

3. APRU Internationalization Workshop, Beijing, February 2004 Terminology in Survey Internationalization the international teaching, research, and outreach activities of students, faculty, and alumni at university/school Outreach non-degree teaching and consulting activities by faculty, students, or staff with domestic or foreign participants Best-practices activities which university/school thinks it does as well or better than the top national or regional universities with which it competes for students, faculty, research funds, and prestige

6. APRU Internationalization Workshop, Beijing, February 2004 Method for Choosing Best Practices Step 1: Setting criteria for evaluating best practices proposed –Innovativeness, creativity, uniqueness –Scalability, transferability –Impact, involvement –Anticipated Durability Step 2: Evaluation of best practices proposed –Scoring each practice by 1 to 7 points (1: poor, 7: outstanding) –Discussion among four independent evaluators for consensus Step 3: Selection of best practices –Choosing ones that are scored 6 and 7 Step 4: Clustering selected practices for purposes of the workshop by content analysis

10. APRU Internationalization Workshop, Beijing, February 2004 Priority for Internationalization Difference between University and Schools Universities have higher mean and lower standard deviation than Schools. University-wideSchool * Priority for internationalization is significantly different between university and school mean (p = 0.05).

11. APRU Internationalization Workshop, Beijing, February 2004 Priority for Internationalization Difference between Regions University-wide School No significant difference between regions. Means are significantly different between regions (p=0.05). The gap between university and schools is larger in North America/Oceania than Asia

16. APRU Internationalization Workshop, Beijing, February 2004 Success of Outcomes Stimulated by Internationalization Comparison between university and school Note that D8 showed the lowest scores, meaning internationalization has not been successful in generating additional sources of income for both Universities and Schools. D1 Preparing internationally competent graduates D2 Improving hiring potential of graduates D3 Recruiting and retaining internationally experienced faculty D4 Developing international activities with stakeholders D5 Maintaining international competitiveness of the school D6 Maintaining international competitiveness of the country D7 Developing international research and scholarship D8 Generating additional sources of income
