ABSTRACT

In the past several decades, internationalisation, which is featured by people and ideas’ unparalleled transnational mobility, has become a key discourse in higher education. Despite the spectacular outcomes that higher education internationalisation has achieved, scholars have detected weaknesses and vulnerabilities in its current policy and practice, which the COVID-19 pandemic have intensified. This presentation provides a critical reflection on the field’s evolution and the prospects for its future, highlighting the urgent demand for concept and practice's innovation on university internationalisation at the regional, national, and institutional levels in response to the changing global field in the post-pandemic era.
