Internationalization in U.S. Higher Education: The Student Perspective
This report, which draws on earlier research conducted by ACE on the internationalization of U.S. colleges and universities, focuses on student experiences and beliefs regarding international education at "highly active" institutions. Funded by the U.S. Department of Education, the report also describes differences between students from highly active institutions and those from less active institutions.

Building a Strategic Framework for Comprehensive Internationalization
First in a series of working papers on internationalization and funded with generous support from the Ford Foundation, this essay outlines two complementary approaches to internationalization as part of an institutional strategy and illustrates how these approaches can be used together in an integrated manner.

Measuring Internationalization in U.S. Higher Education
Funded by the the Ford Foundation, this publication series examines responses to a national survey conducted in 2001 to create an "internationalization index" for community colleges, liberal arts colleges, comprehensive universities, and research universities.
