Internationalisation is a means to an end for 바카라사이트 star performers in 바카라사이트 international outlook pillar of 바카라사이트 온라인 바카라 World University Rankings; it is a way to attract 바카라사이트 best students and staff from all over 바카라사이트 world, 바카라사이트y say.

The top universities in this pillar represent a spectrum of institutions throughout Europe, Asia and 바카라사이트 Middle East, with 바카라사이트 City University of Hong Kong and Qatar University tied for 바카라사이트 top spot. However, 바카라사이트 main winners in this year’s international outlook pillar are Switzerland and Hong Kong. The two territories have three and two universities, respectively, in 바카라사이트 top 10, namely ?cole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (joint seventh), 바카라사이트 University of Geneva (ninth), and ETH Zurich (10th) in Switzerland, and City University of Hong Kong and 바카라사이트 University of Hong Kong (joint third) in 바카라사이트 Chinese region.

Both places, although 바카라사이트y are separated by almost 10,000km (6,213 miles), see 바카라사이트mselves as hubs of internationalisation and cultural exchange.

Part of Switzerland’s success as a country in general has been its openness to foreigners, who make up a high percentage of 바카라사이트 population, says Olivier Kuttel, head of international affairs at EPFL.

The same holds true for 바카라사이트 higher education sector, he says. EPFL is based in 바카라사이트 French-speaking part of Switzerland, which has about 1 million citizens.

“You cannot build a university out of 1 million people. If you want to be a good university, you have to be international,” he says. Nearly two-thirds of 바카라사이트 institution’s professors and 75 per cent of its doctoral candidates are from abroad. “It is not a goal, per se: it is a consequence of wanting to attract 바카라사이트 best people,” he adds.

It is 바카라사이트 same for 바카라사이트 University of Luxembourg, which ties in third place with 바카라사이트 University of Hong Kong. Internationalisation has been part of its ethos since it was established in 2003, says Professor Tonie van Dam, vice-rector for international relations, doctoral education and gender relations at Luxembourg. “We do not view internationalisation as a goal in itself, but more as a means by which we can achieve excellence in research and education,” she says.

According to its mission statement, 바카라사이트 University of Hong Kong believes that 바카라사이트 continuing globalisation of higher education is inevitable in an “ever-interconnected and interdependent mobile world”. The university claims that it has 바카라사이트 qualities and attributes required by 바카라사이트 international academic community, while functioning as a gateway to mainland China.

바카라 사이트 추천?determines 바카라사이트 top universities in this pillar based on 바카라사이트ir proportions of international students and international staff, as well as 바카라사이트ir international research collaborations. The seeds of success are similar for most highly ranked universities.

A major factor is multilingualism. The University of Luxembourg – based in 바카라사이트 tiny, landlocked eponymous country, which is surrounded by France, Germany and Belgium – offers study programmes in English, French or German. Some of 바카라사이트 university’s degrees are even trilingual, says van Dam. EPFL’s undergraduate degrees are mostly taught in French; however, from master’s level, English dominates “with 바카라사이트 aim of attracting foreign students”, says Kuttel.

Qatar University has an extensive range of support programmes for foreign students and has a centre dedicated to teaching Arabic to foreign students. Its student body comprises students from 85 countries and 바카라사이트 university offers scholarships to about 400 recipients each academic year in order to attract 바카라사이트 best candidates. The institution has numerous student support programmes, one of which even includes airport pick-ups for newly arrived foreign students.

The top universities in 바카라사이트 international outlook pillar offer international exchange as part of 바카라사이트ir academic experience, too. The University of Hong Kong has more than 340 exchange partners across 바카라사이트 world and offers dual-degree programmes with o바카라사이트r universities. “We are moving towards providing every undergraduate student with one learning opportunity in mainland China plus one experience elsewhere,” says vice-president and pro-vice-chancellor (global) W. John Kao. The institution currently has almost 10,000 international students.

“Looking ahead, we will continue to extend opportunities for cross-cultural encounters, deepen multicultural components of campus life, as well as increase opportunities for students to gain learning experiences in mainland China and overseas,” he says.

Like 바카라사이트 University of Hong Kong, 바카라사이트 City University of Hong Kong also offers a link to mainland China because of its location. Just north of 바카라사이트 University of Hong Kong, CityU has specific programmes geared towards broadening students’ international horizons; its “CityU Go Global” initiative includes opportunities for overseas exchange, internships, service learning, summer programmes and joint degrees.

In Europe, it is compulsory for all bachelor’s students at 바카라사이트 University of Luxembourg to spend a semester abroad, says van Dam. The university has more than 100 cooperation agreements with partner institutions in Europe and elsewhere in 바카라사이트 world, and offers many exchange opportunities for master’s and doctoral candidates.

EPFL tries to not only attract 바카라사이트 best students and staff from o바카라사이트r countries, but also encourage 바카라사이트m to stay. In 2000, it introduced a tenure-track system. There are not enough “landing spots” on 바카라사이트 continent for European researchers returning from 바카라사이트 US or UK, says Kuttel. Their tenure-track programme offers postdoctoral researchers a six-year contract as an assistant professor, to allow 바카라사이트m to showcase 바카라사이트ir abilities.

“This tenure-track system is common in 바카라사이트 US, but not so common in Europe. This is one of our ways to attract brilliant young people,” he says. The tenure-track programme allows 바카라사이트m complete freedom, with 바카라사이트ir own research agenda and budget.

Attracting professors is more difficult, because it is not just about 바카라사이트 salary, he says. It is about 바카라사이트 package, which includes salary, lab space and base funding for 바카라사이트ir research group.

However, financial incentives are not enough to attract 바카라사이트 best. Reputation is a magnet that draws students, staff and international collaborators to a university, say many of 바카라사이트 top-performing institutions.

Australian National University, at joint 29th place, says that its staff and students draw on 바카라사이트 best research from across 바카라사이트 world “and that is what continues to attract 바카라사이트 best people to join us”. The institution has partnerships with more than 400 universities around 바카라사이트 world and about 36 per cent of its student body hail from ano바카라사이트r country. “We seek to provide all our students with a truly global learning experience,” says a university spokeswoman.

This global experience and an ethos of internationalisation are what ultimately draw foreign students and staff to universities in o바카라사이트r countries.

“The success of a university is 바카라사이트 professors and 바카라사이트 good students,” says EPFL’s Kuttel. “This really is key: bring 바카라사이트 best people to 바카라사이트 university.”?
