Resumo: | Education is the most successful strategy for a country’s growth and development. It is widely agreed that it is the most effective means that society possesses for dealing with the challenges of the future. Nevertheless, higher education has been confronted and needs, therefore, to redefine its historic role as the centre of universal knowledge and understanding. This master thesis analyses the importance of internationalisation on higher education institutions and enable us to better understand how they are changing as a consequence of internationalisation. Using the University of Aveiro as a case study, we will be studying what is internationalisation in a higher education context and which rationales, approaches and activities are associated with the internationalisation process of an institution. Furthermore, the appropriateness of theories of internationalisation specifically developed for business contexts will be assayed in higher education contexts. |

É o meio mais relevante que a sociedade possui para lidar com os desafios do futuro. Contudo, o ensino superior tem sido confrontado e necessita de redefinir o seu papel histórico enquanto centro de conhecimento e compreensão universal. Esta dissertação de mestrado analisa a importância da internacionalização nas instituições de ensino superior e permite-nos compreender a sua influência nas alterações das instituições. Usando o caso de estudo da Universidade de Aveiro, será analisado o conceito de internacionalização em contexto de ensino superior e os motivos, formas e actividades que estão associados ao processo de internacionalização de uma instituição. Mais ainda, será questionada a adequabilidade das teorias de internacionalização especialmente desenvolvidas em ambientes industriais a contextos de ensino superior.Universidade de Aveiro2018-07-20T14:00:36Z2011-12-27T00:00:00Z2011-12-272013-12-20T15:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/7947engNogueira, Rosa Isabel de Almeidainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-02-22T11:13:42Zoai:ria.ua.pt:10773/7947Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T02:45:25.223742Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
