From Historical Development to Global Competitiveness:Evolution and Challenges of International Higher Education in Asia
The article explores the historical development and contemporary dynamics of international higher education in Asia,with a particular focus on the integration of Western educational models and the formation of regional identities.By analyzing major Asian economies such as China,Japan,South Korea,Singapore and Malaysia,this study examines how these countries balance traditional values with Western influences in the context of both globalized and localized educational policies and practices.The article tracks transformative developments driven by globalization,technological advances,and socio-economic changes,and discusses current trends such as the strengthening of intra-regional cooperation,the increasing mobility of students across borders,and the expansion of English-medium programs.These changes not only enhance academic exchanges and international student mobility within the region,but also raise the global standing of these countries in the field of education.At the same time,the study also highlights challenges faced by Asia in terms of brain drain,disparities in education quality,and over-reliance on Western models.By providing a deeper insight into how Asian countries are responding to these dynamic developments,this article provides a valuable perspective for future policy-making and international cooperation,with the aim of contributing to the shaping of the future landscape of international higher education.
