000456621 520__ $$aStudy abroad has become a key educational means for colleges and universities to prepare graduates with the intercultural competencies needed to succeed in the twenty-first-century global economy. The federal government, the business community, and the higher education sector are united in their belief that study abroad is critical to such success. To that end, significant institutional resources are being invested in study abroad. This monograph seeks to address two fundamental questions. First, who studies abroad (or who does not) and why? Second, what are the outcomes of study abroad? Increasing and broadening study abroad participation have proven particularly challenging, and the authors look to the research for clues as to how such participation rates might be improved. Although the research literature suggests positive outcomes of study abroad, existing studies leave educators with some challenging questions. Based on their review, the authors pose recommendations for ways in which study abroad in the twenty-first century can renew its purposes and fulfill its promise. -- Back cover.
