Davis, Todd M., Ed.
This report examines current and historical data on international student mobility, based on surveys of foreign students and scholars in the United States and U.S. students in study-abroad programs and in the Cooperative Institutional Research Program. After a collection of summary tables, text and extensive data tables are organized into 11 chapters as follows: (1) overview; (2) enrollments by place of origin and academic level; (3) U.S. distribution of foreign students; (4) the economics of educational exchange; (5) foreign students by the Carnegie classification system; (6) academic and personal characteristics of foreign students; (7) student mobility worldwide; (8) destinations of U.S. students studying overseas; (9) foreign students in intensive English programs; (10) foreign scholars; and (11) information about the surveys used to compile the report. Brief essays on specific aspects of international educational exchange by a variety of authors are also included. (DB)
