Internationalization, Deregulation and the Extension of Higher Education in Korea: A Further Note

Abstract

The Korean government implemented several educational policies to enhance internationalization of higher education such as deregulation of higher education, classroom instructions in English, and faculty publications in international refereed journals. However, the speed of globalization has been lagging behind (Green, 2015). Alternatively, this Note suggests the merit of off-shore campuses that educate students globally and upgrade higher education nationwide. Inviting off-shore campuses from overseas would be a cost- effective way to boost internationalization of domestic higher education.
