Abstract

By combining an institution’s international reach with its international richness we can construct an internationalization matrix that identifies seven distinct types of higher education institutions. I examine and compare the rationale and characteristics of each type of institution and the conditions they must fulfill to be sustainable.

It is important to note that we do not use the terms ‘multinational’ and ‘transnational’ in exactly the way they are used to describe firms in the international business literature.

According to the former president of Yale University, Levin [7], the goal of his institution “is to become a truly global university—educating leaders and advancing the frontiers of knowledge not simply for the United States, but for the entire world.” According to our suggested taxonomy, this goal would not make Yale University a global one: with US students making up about 10 % of its student body, Yale University remains a national university with an internationalization program based on a credible import-export orientation.

The business school INSEAD (www.​insed.​edu) is an example of an institution born European with a heavy French representation that evolved into a cosmopolitan school. Note however that INSEAD, like Switzerland-based IMD, are independent institutions that are not affiliated with a university contrary to the case of most US business schools. This independence has allowed these schools to evolve into the cosmopolitan model unhampered by the constraints imposed by a broader university or government regulation of the educational sector that often restricts the number of foreign students local higher education institutions can enroll.
