Internationalisation courses for staff
It will help to develop:
- An understanding of current issues within HE in the UK, with a particular focus on the issue of internationalisation. As an international university, we have lots of insight and experience to share in this area.
- An international ethos through a genuine, balanced and equal exchange with York staff and students.
- Skills required in an internationalised university.
The course includes the following components:
1. Discussion
This will be based on group readings and discussion in the areas of HE in the UK, internationalisation of HE, and Internationalisation as it effects specific group members.
2. Communication workshops
These will be practical sessions on the international interactions that the participants are involved in and aim to develop the skills that they need. These sessions will also serve to prepare and reflect on the work shadowing and interview opportunities.
3. Work shadowing/interviews
Shadowing, discussion and interviews will take place with a range of University staff members related to the participants’ field of work and expressed interests.
The focus is very much on practical outcomes and how participants can effect and implement change.
Come to the beautiful historic city of York to share and hone your ideas for practical outcomes and dissemination.
