Some essential points:

Internationalisation in higher education is more affiliated withteaching and learning than with research, but increasingly is seenas an essential part, in particular for research universities

Research is assumed to be international by nature, butcomplexity of research, priorities, its international dimensionsand funding challenges require a more strategic approach

Research does require increasingly central facilities (funding,access to external funding, legal aspects) but continues to be

more a researcher and research group strategy than aninstitutional one.

Cuerpo de INTERNATIONALISATION OF RESEARCH AND HIGHEREDUCATION: EMERGING PATTERNS OF TRANSFORMATIONse Gornitzka, Magnus Gulbrandsen and Jarle Trondal (eds.) , NIFUP,Norway, 2003

Internationalisation of research is on the output side e.g.manifested in an increase of internationally co-authoredpublications and patents, international conferences and research

programmes and projects, as well as contacts betweenindividuals, institutions and states.

The focus in the literature on internationalisation of research lieson mobility studies and bibli-metric studies, while there is less

literature that explicit concern the driving forces and the effects ofresearch policy on internationalisation.

Internationalisation of Research:

ChallengesThe big challenges facing humanity require an internationaleffort by science

National science systems do not have sufficient capacities andfinancial resources for shouldering the investments which areneeded for large-scale research facilities and projects.

International networks of research collaborations and global

strategic alliancesare emerging, particularly in the natural and

engineering sciences, in addition to bilateral and trilateralinternational cooperation.

The Challenges 2

The internationalization of production capacities is now followed bythe internationalization of development and research capacities.Countries are fiercely competing with each other as potential hostsof research centers.

Companies are building links with research institutes and

universities at their production, research and development sites inorder to find more specific solutions to problems they face in thedevelopment of new products, processes and services and totranslate the researchers' new ideas into marketable products morequickly.

Students and researchers today are also more mobile than ever

before. They are looking for the best working groups in their fields,and institutions around the world are seeking to attract them.

Challenges 3

Higher education institutions and research establishments arefaced with new institutional challenges: Input-orientedmanagement is no longer an adequate means for dealing with thisdynamic international development and meeting the need for

international networking.

Particularly the natural and engineering sciences, but also thecultural sciences and the humanities play a special role in thesolution of these international problems.

The political community will only be able to continue to shape thisprocess, if science describes and explains the trends, causes andeffects of globalization.

How relevant is the national research policy for theinternationalisation of research at your institution, and does thatpolicy include an international dimension and if so, what are its

main characteristics?

How much incentives and which one come from the national levelfor your research internationalisation?

How much is the private sector in your region, Colombia orinternational a factor in the internationalisation of your researchand in which way?

Foundation

There is still little empirical evidence as to the level of

internationalisation of research institutions

A conceptual framework is needed for the description and theanalysis of internationalisation processes of research institutions,showing the rationalesfor internationalisation and the main

processes where an internationalisation strategy can beimplemented.

Internationalisation of Research:Aarhus University, Denmark

Achieving excellence requires close interaction with otherinternational elite environments.

Therefore, Aarhus University takes an active part in internationalresearch collaboration and

Has a considerable number of strategic alliances with universities andresearch institutions around the world.

This is reflected in a dramatic growth in the number of scientificpublications in collaboration with researchers abroad.

Aarhus Research Priorities

Aarhus University wishes to create optimum conditions for theinternationalisation of research.

Research is conducted at the decentralised level and the choice of

international partners therefore rests with individual researchgroups.

The university will ensure that strategic alliances reflect the needsand aspirations of the research environments for internationalnetworks.

Aarhus University will give high priority to obtaining externalfundingfor research in order to develop innovative knowledge incollaboration with public and private partners abroad.
