Global Competency Development for Graduate Students from the Perspective of Internationalization at Home

With the advancement of economic globalization, cultivating globally competent international talents has become a key task for domestic universities. As international exchanges gradually return to pre-pandemic levels, the post-pandemic era has introduced challenges due to reduced cross-border movement, making cross-border educational exchanges more difficult to implement. In this context, “internalization at home” becomes crucial for developing internationalized talent. It offers a cost-effective approach and is particularly important as global competence is a core quality for such talents. This study aims to review and analyze relevant practices both domestically and internationally, using specific cases from various universities to discuss global competency training programs for postgraduates and to provide recommendations for advancing internationalization in China’s higher education sector.
