ABSTRACT
Since the Bologna Declaration of 19 June 1999, the internationalisation of higher education has been embedded in the broader discourses on global citizenship, the competencies of graduates, curriculum development and pedagogy. The Policy Brief (2004) of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) clearly states that:
Higher education has become increasingly international in the past decade as more and more students choose to study abroad, enrol in foreign educational programmes and institutions in their home country, or simply use the Internet to take courses at colleges or universities in other countries.
