De facto of international higher education in Asia
• Growing presence of Asian countries as hosts of international students.
• Growing number of students move from Asia to Asia• Possible Growing number of inter-university linkages and
transnational programs within Asia
“Asianization of Asia” is also confirmed in international higher education
Necessity to discuss Asian Regional Governance from the perspective of international higher education
24
25
Possible policy objectives for Asian regionalgovernance in higher educationInternational and Regional Peace & Mutual Understanding Based on the spirit of the UNESCO Constitution:
• “That since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed”
Considering Asian history of conflicts and wars, and political and cultural diversity of the region, this policy dimension is specially important.
Nurturing Global and Regional Identities Creation of a ‘People’s Europe’ and promotion of ‘European’ identity have been
recognized as main objectives of international student mobility within Europe in the process of European integration.
26
Possible policy objectives for Asian regional governance in higher education
Promoting Regional Competitiveness and Economic Development Increased recognition of “Brain Circulation”. International student mobility has been recognized as a human resource
development strategy for enhancing regional economic competitiveness in European integration.
Healthy Regional Education Market Formulation of Asian regional education market Necessity to build sound regional system to assure quality of
higher education and an efficient credit transfer system.
27
Searching for guiding principles of Asian regional framework of higher educationThe Kuala Lumpur Declaration First East Asian Summit (in 2005)
• Article 6 – We will enhance people-to-people exchange aimed at developing a "we" feeling.
• Article 7 – We will encourage the sharing of ideas through greater interaction between students, academicians, researchers, artists, media, and youths among countries in East Asia.
• Article 8 – We will conduct regular exchange of intellectuals, members of think tanks, religious personalities and scholars, which will benefit East Asia and the world through deeper knowledge and understanding so as to fight intolerance and improve understanding among cultures and civilizations.
28
Recent Moves• SEAMEO/RIHED International Conference Series on
Raising Awareness 2008 “Exploring the Ideas of Creating Higher EducationCommon Space in Southeast Asia”
• ASEAN + 3 Higher Education Policy Dialogue 2009“Intellectual Contribution to Enhancing Future Cooperation of Higher Education in East-Asian Community”
• CAMPUS Asia (Collective Action for the Mobility Program of University Students) was just started to be discussed among China, Korea and Japan in 2010
29
Prospecting Asian regional governance framework in higher education
1. Should it target (1) elite exchange through promoting linkages among elite institutions or (2) popular exchange through promoting system-wide harmonization? - Given factorsLarge diversity within a country and across countries→ more feasible to start with elite exchangeOn the other hand,System-wide harmonization can sustainably promote student mobility.→“Asian Bologna Process” rather than “Asian ERASMUS”?
“Melting Pot” Integration vs. “Mosaic” Integration – Higher Education “ASEAN Way”?
30
Prospecting Asian regional governance framework in higher education
2. What countries should be in this framework? Does Northeast Asia (Korea, China and Japan) need another framework? How do they cooperate with ASEAN? How about Australia and NZ?- ASEAN, East Asia and Asia-Pacific.
(1) Hub-spoke system or opposite-hub-spoke system- ASEAN can lead harmonization of higher education in East Asia.- Northeast Asian Cooperation is rapidly progressing.(2) More functional to include Australia and NZ(3) Multi-layered regional governance frameworks should be
established.
31
Prospecting Asian regional governance framework in higher education
3. Theoretical Implications of Regionalization(1) Fast developing Asian higher education may not be explained
by “Dependency Model” or “Neocolonial Model” any more.(2) Regionalization of higher education in Asia can be considered
as a counter-force against “Core” control on “Periphery” universities?
(3) Applicability of “Flying Geese Model” for Asian highereducation

36
• Not much, but one: 2003, 2005, 2009 International Association of Universities (IAU) Global Survey Report – led by Prof. Jane Knight
• What is different from 2005 IAU Global Survey- Different recipients
IAU: 3,057 IAU member institutions in 95 countries with relatively low response rates of approximately 14%,
JICA: analytically selected 300 “leading” universities in 15 Asian countries with relatively high response rate of approximately 43%.
- JICA included additional dimensions to survey

Survey for 300 universities
38
• Slelection method • Survey Target
– Identify approximately 300 institutions that can be considered as "leading universities" in ASEAN and plus 5 countries, while ensuring representatives from ASEAN countries & avoiding over-representativeness from non-ASEAN.
• Selection Method – 1st step, we identify universities that appear in any list of 3
university rankings* and 8 international (or regional) university organizations‘ memberships* (*next slide)☆⇒ Applied for 8 ASEAN countries
– 2nd, identify universities that appear at least twice in the above lists ⇒ Applied for 2 ASEAN countries and China
– 3rd, identify universities that appear at least three times in the above lists ⇒ Applied for the rest of countries
– Lastly, added 22 universities suggested by the participants from the Bangkok Workshop.
39
• Selection method (continued)☆University rankings used
①Times Higher Education-QS World University Rankings 2008 (Complete Rankings) (400 ranked)
②Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Academic Ranking of World Universities 2008 (500 ranked)
③Ranking Web of World Universities 2008, by Webometrics (5000 ranked)

• Summary1. Cross-border activities:1) Innovative cross-border activities are less active than conventional cross-
border activities, but innovative cross-border activities are expected to grow significantly in the future.
2) The active levels of all cross-border activities are lower for ASEAN than Northeast Asia in the past and present period. But as the growth rate of the active levels increased rapidly in ASEAN, in the future, the active level for Northeast Asia and ASEAN are not much different.
2. Expected outcomes:1) Although the level of significance is not much different among the expected
outcomes, in general the level of significance for academic and political expected outcome is slightly higher than economic expected outcomes.
2) In the past and present, Northeast Asia places significantly more importance on academic and political expected outcomes in comparison with ASEAN.
3) In the future, ASEAN is expected to place significantly more importance on economic expected outcomes in comparison with Northeast Asia.
4) In the past, national expected outcome is regarded more important than the others, but in the present and future, global, regional, and institutional expected outcomes are regarded and are expected to be regarded more important than national expected outcome.
Preliminary findings

• Summary (continued)3.1 Regional partners (for overall cross-border activities) : ASEAN: Southeast & Northeast Asia are the most active partners followed by
North America and Western Europe.Northeast Asia: Southeast Asia & North America are the most active partners,
while Northeast Asia and Western Europe are almost equally active partners.
3.2 Regional partners (for each cross-border activity) :1) ASEAN: ASEAN is the most active regional partner for the
different types of cross-border activities, except for “cross-border collaborative degree programs,” which has Western Europe as the most active regional partner.Northeast Asia: North America is the most active regional partner for thedifferent types of cross-border activities, except for “Acceptance of foreign students,” which has Northeast Asia as the most active regional partnerfollowed by Southeast Asia.
Preliminary findings

• Summary (continued)3.2 Regional partners (for each cross-border activity) :2) ASEAN: the top 5 active regional partners are the same for the
different types of cross-border activities, except for “acceptance of foreign student,” which includes South and West Asia instead ofNorth America. Northeast Asia: the top 5 active regional partners are the same forthe different types of cross-border activities, except for “Acceptanceof foreign students,” which has South and West Asia instead ofOceania and Pacific as one of the top 5 active regional partners.
3) The active levels of all cross-border activities are lower for ASEAN than Northeast Asia in the past and present period. But as the growth rate of the active levels increased rapidly in ASEAN, in the future, the active level for Northeast Asia and ASEAN are not much different from each other.
Preliminary findings
Overview of the survey for 1,000 cross-border collaborative
degree programs (Part 1-2)
71
Definition of cross-border collaborative degree programs:
72
• Higher education degree programs, which are institutionally produced/organized with cross-border university partnership by at least 2 institutions in 2 countries or more; or higher education programs organized by foreign provider.– Main examples: double/joint, twinning, and sandwich
• Not include, for example, conventional student exchange programs based on international university agreements
Survey for 1,000 programs
73
• Identification method – 1st step: Identify all “cross-border degree programs” in
300 leading universities, mainly through: • MOE site, if available • Key country publication, if available • Website of each university’s international office or
equivalent • Key word search in website of each university (key
words such as double/joint, twinning, and sandwich), possibly in English as well as each country language
• Key word in Google site (with country, university, and program type’s name)
– 2nd step: Grouping the programs with the similar criteria (e.g. Partner university, major, degree type)

Research questions
75
• Status: What is general status of “cross-border collaborative degree programs” in Asia? What kinds of “cross-border collaborative degree programs” exist, and how can we develop universal definition of specific forms (ex. twinning, double degree, and joint degree programs)?
• Expected outcomes: What expected outcomes do “cross-border collaborative degree programs” have? Are these expected outcomes of the programs different depending on their forms, partner regions, or field of study?
• Regional preference: Is there any change over the years regarding partner region for cross border collaborative degree programs in Asia?
• Risks: What kinds of perceived benefits and costs/risks are involved in promoting “cross-border collaborative degree programs”?
