Making a Difference: Australian International Education tells the story of Australian international education from its foundations in the early part of the 20th century, through the watershed period in the mid-1980s when the full-fee overseas student policy was introduced, to a peak in 2010 of around 750,000 international students enrolled in Australia and in Australian institutions offshore. It also addresses many of the challenges experienced in that transition including increasing competition in the marketplace, the maintenance of quality, integrity of the visa process, student safety, and engagement with the community.
Authors deal with certain aspects of international education such as marketing, institution and sector approaches, public/private partnerships, student outcomes, offshore delivery, and international relationships. From this compilation of perspectives emerges a fully documented, comprehensive record of a country’s international education initiatives, one which will be invaluable to historians as well as for those working in institutions and organizations that promote, support, or regulate international education programs.
