Internationalisation in European non-university higher education

Scholarly interest in questions of the internationalisation of higher education has recently risen markedly. Internationalisation has indeed become one of the key issues in the global higher education debate of the last decade of this millennium. In contrast to this general trend, the international cooperation efforts of the particular segment of non-university higher education has so far not been the object of much scrutiny. Given the growing importance of the sector, this state of affairs is hardly justified. This is why the Academic Cooperation Association embarked, in late 1998, on the project “Internationalisation in European Non-University Higher Education”. This publication presents the results of this project.
