dc.description.abstract | Universities worldwide are ever striving to improve the quality of education they are offering while focusing on international, intercultural or global dimensions. It is notable that institutions globally have to comply with the ISO specifications which stand out as a yardstick for quality checks. Internationalisation incorporates student mobility into its concept while bringing Universities on board to realize its universal nature. Students’ mobility plays a big role in internationalisation of education as it involves cross-border flow of students from various countries with different backgrounds and cultures. In East Africa, a recent study indicates that increased mobility is characterised with a significant number of post graduate students. Most of these students are professionals in various fields and therefore are resourceful when strategically incorporated into the university set up to enhance international, intercultural or global dimensions into the education system. Students’ mobility in the East African Community is a fast growing phenomenon and could be very useful towards attainment of higher educational goals. With these dynamic changes, university policies may be modified to cater for opportunities that arise with students’ mobility in relation to internationalisation of education. This paper aims at examining the contribution of students’ mobility on internationalisation of education in Universities with prime focus on East Africa. This will help Universities to elevate internationalisation of Higher Education which has been facing numerous challenges in the region. The information obtained is based on a research conducted | en_US |
