First-Generation College Students and Study Abroad
This book showcases the experiences of first-generation college students on study abroad programs. Research shows that study abroad programs develop crucial life skills, provide valuable experiences, and enhance academic achievement. However, only a small percentage of first-generation students access these opportunities. By centering the voices and stories of first-generation students, this book advocates for equity in global education while reimagining study abroad as a more accessible and empowering experience. This book asks how faculty, administrators, and staff can tap into the strengths of first-generation students to increase the number of those who take advantage of their opportunities, and explores the ways in which first-generation students contribute to the success and vision of study abroad programs. It will be of interest to scholars studying educational outreach, higher education, and comparative and international education.

Education Abroad and the Undergraduate Experience
Co-published with This volume focuses on two questions. First, how can education abroad be embedded into undergraduate education so that students experience it as an integral component of their education and something they help shape, rather than as time away from their education and as a commodity to be consumed? Second, how can colleges and universities maximize the educational value of education abroad by forging stronger connections between it and other undergraduate experiences?

International Higher Education’s Scholar-Practitioners
The idea of the professional who bridges both research and practice has been largely overlooked and at times even disregarded by the academic and administrative structures that govern activity in higher education today. In international higher education, the number of students who now engage in mobility and exchange has expanded globally, along with the administrative cadre that manages all facets of internationalization, and the quickly growing scholarly attention to understanding the phenomenon. In this process, two distinct professional categories have emerged: those who ‘study it’ and those who ‘do it’ – the scholars and the practitioners. Practitioners are seen as those who ma...
