This article examines how students' subject knowledge acquired in short-term international courses (SICs) developed while engaging in university studies in the year following their SICs. It also explores factors associated with their engagement and disengagement. Two interviews with a 1-year interval with 25 students revealed their transformations…

This article explores the development of students as global citizens, using a Students-as-Partners (SaP) approach in which the partnership focused beyond academic staff in regions that have, politically and geographically, been referred to as the "global south."

Increasingly, university and employer discourse identify a need for graduates to have an intellectual and global "mind-set" beyond disciplinary competencies and national boundaries. Universities aiming to educate global citizens show limited outcomes. Global citizen research has investigated the mobility experience, yet limited attention…

Short-term study abroad programs currently account for more than 50% of students who study overseas. Using an adaptation of the Value-Belief-Norm theory of proenvironmental behavior (Stern, 2000), we hypothesized that study abroad nurtures global citizenship related to ecologically conscious behaviors by strengthening core relations among…
