The Interplay between the International and European Dimension

European higher education institutions (HEIs) interpret in a unique way external impulses that play a core role in implementing the international and European dimensions. These dimensions can both converge and diverge inside HEIs, leading to organizational changes. This study aims to investigate the interplay between international and European dimensions, focusing on the case of the School of Management of the Politecnico di Milano. Using the institutional logics’ perspective, this qualitative case study analyzes data collected from institutional documents and semi-structured interviews. The findings indicate that the international and European dimensions diverge because of their institutional logics. Moreover, the individuals are identified as pivotal for successfully incorporating these dimensions within HEIs. Furthermore, the findings show the transformative potential of the European dimension. This study offers researchers and practitioners a new perspective on internationalization and Europeanization, linking these processes to the organizational dynamics of HEIs. 欧洲高等教育机构（HEIs）以独特的方式解读外部影响。这些影响在实施国际和欧洲维度中起着核心作用。这些维度在高等教育机构内部既可以趋同，也可以分化，从而引发组织变革。本研究旨在探讨国际和欧洲维度之间的相互作用，重点分析米兰理工大学管理学院的案例。通过制度逻辑的视角，本质性案例研究分析了从机构文件和半结构化访谈中收集的数据。研究结果表明，由于制度逻辑的不 同，国际和欧洲维度存在分歧。此外，个体被认为是在高等教育机构中成功融入这些维度的关键。研究还揭示了欧洲维度的转型潜力。本研究为研究人员和实践者提供了一个关于国际化和欧洲化的新视角，将这些过程与高等教育机构的组织动态联系起来。
