    INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON HIGHER EDUCATION


    9 - 12 December 2013

    3rd

    3rd INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON HIGHER EDUCATION


    University of Vic

    The internationalisation process in which universities, including the University of Vic (UVic), are immersed is a response to the increasingly globalised socioeconomic, cultural and intellectual context. The mission of universities has not changed: they have always had an international focus. It is the context that has changed: the world seems to have become smaller and distances shorter. New technologies have compressed time and space. Knowledge in all elds now rapidly crosses borders to become available worldwide. It is in this context that UVic is creating the conditions to realise its full potential. The UVic internationalisation effort is not limited to just a few specic areas of the University but is a shared project that cuts across all departments and centres. That is why we invite international experts in many disciplines to give plenary lectures and take part in our panels on internationalisation. The rst and the second workshop held in December 2011 and November 2012 turned UVic into an arena for discussion of international opportunities and challenges for UVic itself and for other business, education and health organisations. This 3rd International Workshop, to be held 9-12 December 2013, will once again turn UVic into a site for discussion on leadership in higher education and other non-prot institutions. The International Workshop is a meeting point where UVic researchers, PhD students and external institutions can take part in discussions in various elds, together with specialists from all over the world. The UVic International Workshop on Higher Education is sponsored by Obra Social la Caixa.
