| Title | TRACKING INTERNATIONAL JOINT DEGREE PROGRAMS IN HUNGARY |
| Summary | In the time of dynamic changes in higher education led by globalization and internationalization discourses, the study examines international joint degree programs as one of the newest developments in international cooperation. Following an overview of the key elements of the recent debates about internationalization process at higher education institutions and forms and evolution of international collaboration, the paper implements a case study approach to track the development of joint degree programs in that context. Specifically, a university in Hungary, Corvinus University of Budapest, which has been particularly successful in ensuring high participation rates in joint degree cooperation, is the focus of the inquiry. The findings imply a more ad-hoc rather than strategy-oriented path of the international programs but two models of development emerge from the evaluation. The observations are then analyzed in the wider context of internationalization efforts and policies of the university and recommendations are put forward for greater horizontal and centrally-led coordination of joint programs in order to signify their importance within the internationalization process. |
