"This book makes an important contribution to understanding the relatively understudied phenomenon of internationalizing the doctoral journey. By including chapters from students, graduates, academics and administrators from across six continents and different disciplines, this book offers new insights and research. Highly recommended for higher education policy makers, researchers, faculty members and graduate students who want to deepen their understanding of the different dimensions, models and impacts of internationalizing doctoral education."Jane Knight, PhD, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto, Canada"This book covers an important 21st century higher education topic. Internationalizing higher education institutions and missions without internationalizing the faculty is likely to produce intellectually vacuous results. Building a cadre of faculty who are capable and experienced in culturally different ways of teaching and learning, research and scholarship, and community engagement begins with doctoral program opportunities that provide relevant international content and experience. As stated by the authors, there is no best model, there are optional models; but not internationalizing the doctoral program experience at all is a serious omission today."John Hudzik, Professor and Vice President Emeritus, Michigan State University, USA"Chapters in this volume come from a diverse range of countries and contexts, and represent the voices of a broad range of stakeholders, including students and graduates of PhD programmes. Incorporating internationalisation into doctoral education is vital for those who will stay in academia, but also those who go on to work in business, industry, for NGOs or national and regional government. The book provides a range of models to support this effort and also looks to the future in recommending how its findings and proposals may be taken forward."Jocelyne Gacel-Avila, PhD, UNESCO Chair on Internationalization of Higher Education and Global Citizenship, University of Guadalajara, Mexico."This book effectively addresses a gap in understanding of the significance and importance of international intercultural experiences at doctoral level. Readers will find a good deal of theoretical sophistication as well as invaluable practical advice, building on analyses from a truly international team of authors. The balance between the volume’s comprehensiveness, detail in the presentation of diverse experiences and the coherence of the work is commendable."Manuel Souto-Otero, Professor in Education Policy and Head of the Education Research Group, Cardiff University, UK."This book brings together a set of highly insightful essays in which the authors, drawn from around the world, reflect critically on their own experiences of international doctoral education or of supervising international students. Their personal accounts invariably strengthen the ways in which they engage with the growing body of literature on international doctoral education and describe the research projects many of them have themselves carried out. This synthetic approach has resulted in essays that are both empirically rich and analytically astute, helpful not only in describing the opportunities and challenges associated with international doctoral education but also in developing normative models, pointing to the multiple benefits of internationalization of higher education."Fazal Rizvi, Emeritus Professor, The University of Melbourne, Australia and The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA"The internationalisation of higher education has long been an important topic on the agenda of researchers, practitioners and policy makers, but there are still issues that are insufficiently addressed in an international comparative perspective. One of these grey areas is dealt with very well in this monograph, which focuses on the "doctoral experience": 70 authors from 35 countries on all continents form an extremely convincing forum that can offer the reading public much food for thought."Pavel Zgaga, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy of Education and Education Policy, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia"The authors of this book have facilitated a lively and authentic discussion of dimensions related to doctoral students’ experiences and their intersection with internationalisation. Beyond understanding different models, opportunities, challenges, and outcomes related to the doctoral experience, what makes this book special is the inclusion of the voices of doctoral students themselves. With authors hailing from as many as 35 countries across 6 continents, this book centres students’ voices, showcasing valuable perspectives from around the world that are not oft-told."Tang T. Heng, EdD, National Institute of Education, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
