Abstract:

This book provides an overview and evaluation of the quality of bilingual
education found in internationalised higher education institutions. Its
authors focus on the multifaceted roles that language(s) play in these growing
multilingual spaces and analyse and identify the many factors that account for
quality multilingual degree programmes. The chapters cover themes such as
language policy, quality assurance tools and indicators of quality and the
authors approach issues of quality from very different and complementary
perspectives, adopting for example, temporal, evaluative and developmental
positioning, and taking micro, meso and macro level perspectives, while still
keeping sight of the local realities, practices and possibilities. The
contributions are written by authors working in Brazil, Finland, Mexico,
Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK and have implications for
researchers, education coordinators, practitioners and other stakeholders who
are looking to design, launch and evaluate new programmes in any higher
education context worldwide.
