AN ANALYSIS OF INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION RESOURCES IN CONNECTICUIT
Journal Title: Educational Research International - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper intends to analyze the international education resources of study abroad programs (SAPs) and international students in universities and colleges in Connecticut (CT) with respect to developing global competency. Connecticut public universities, Capital Community College, Hartford Seminary, Saint Joseph College, Trinity College, and University of Hartford comprised the sample. The data was analyzed through the perspectives of internationalization strategies. The data was quantitatively evaluated. Results revealed that theSAP destination countries and the countries from where majority international students come to study in CT universities and colleges are complementary. The educational institutions in CT can build on their international diversity to prepare globally competent students. This study may have the potential to fine tune the internationalization approaches with respect to developing globally competent citizens of our students.
