“…The number of university students throughout the world who are reaching out to take courses and earn degrees with an international theme, or those trying to gain valuable international experience during their academic years is increasing, and this pattern shows no sign of letting up.

Investigates the increasing interest by educators to provide students with the international management and research skills that are becoming more necessary as we enter the twenty-first century. Highlights the need for the internationalisation of curriculum, as well as the faculty and instructors who teach such courses. Presents two cases of such internationalisation efforts in Iran and Sweden. Explores the internationalisation of the courses and the instructors who taught them over a three-year period; certain positive and negative aspects to these experiences are identified and presented. Suggests that such research on the successes and failures in such cases serve as a foundation to continue research in other settings, so as to learn more about how to continue with efforts to internationalise both curriculum and faculty.
