Abstract

The diversity found in the classrooms of most higher education programs is a consequence of the globalized marketplace and worldwide immigration, with different nationalities coming together in a classroom environment to learn how to better perform in a market that is similarly multicultural and ethnically diverse. This learning environment now mandates that students develop a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of different cultures and ways of doing business in different parts of the world compared to earlier decades. This chapter discusses how educational institutions are addressing global awareness and citizenship, leading to a consequent employability improvement as well as providing the global community with future leaders and effective problem-solvers.
