A
direct consequent of globalisation has been the internationalisation
of higher education. This has taken three forms: the incoming
of foreign students, development of institutional linkages,
and "export of education" through franchise or distance education
programmes. India, unfortunately, has been slow to respond
to the challenges of internationalisation. Keeping in view
the importance of internationalisation, the Association of
Indian Universities (AIU) organised, in February, 2001, a
Roundtable at Mysore to discuss the different issues related
to the internationalisation of Indian higher education. The
proceedings of the Roundtable were published in the form of
a volume entitled "Internationalisation of Indian Higher Education".
In view of the favourable response to the AIU initiative in
this regard a second Roundtable on "Internationalisation of
Higher Education" was organised at Amritsar in February 2002.
The discussions centered around the sub-themes "Status and
Policy" "Institutional Links and Student Mobility " and "Marketing"
The papers presented at the second Roundtable are included
in this publication Price: Deluxe

An
important development of the nineties of the last century
has been the large-scale internationalisation of higher education.
This has taken three forms: the incoming of foreign students,
development of institutional linkages, 'Export of Education'
through franchise or distance education programmes. India,
unfortunately, has been slow to respond to the challenges
of internationalisation. The Association of Indian Universities
recently organised a Roundtable to discuss the different issues
related to the Internationalisation of Indian Higher Education.
The Papers presented at this Roundtable, covering the sub-themes
'Global Perspectives and Issues', 'Internationalising Indian
Higher Education', and 'Programmes for Internationlisation
in Indian Institutions', are included in this publication.
The recommendations of the Roundtable are given in the form
of 'Mysore Statement'. Price: Deluxe
