Abstract

This communication presents an analysis on the internationalization strategies employed by the Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in two selected universities located in two distinct OECD countries. The study is based on literature review, establishment of categories as points of reference and comparison. We look at and compare internationalization strategy focused on international student mobility and Internationalization at Home (IaH) actions focused on the development of intercultural competences in students as learning outcomes and strategy goals. Finally, in addition to an ex-post analysis of the ongoing implementation of the internationalization strategy at the Universidad de La Frontera, we draw conclusions and lessons learnt for the internationalization of Business Education within a HEI of an emerging economy.
