Summary

Internationalization and Employability in Higher Education explores the crucial relationship between global engagement in universities and positive employment outcomes. Drawing on a multitude of international case studies, the book highlights how higher education institutions can better communicate the benefits of internationalisation beyond academia. It addresses the necessity for equitable graduate outcomes through enhanced internationalisation at home, the influence of immigration policy on national advantages of internationalisation, and the role of international study in employability and knowledge economy development.

By examining skills gained through mobility experiences and the need for curriculum internationalisation domestically, this work serves as a vital resource for policymakers, university staff involved in careers and employment, and employers seeking to understand the international dimensions of graduate employability.
