What is European Higher Education Area (EHEA)

Internationalisation is a key factor both for professional development in the 21st century and international university rankings, and it is indeed at the very core of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA). This chapter analyses policies of internationalisation for higher education both in Spain and the international arena, such as the dimensions of major university rankings, together with tools for the concept known as internationalisation at home, such as the offer of English friendly courses and degrees offered in English as a medium of instruction (EMI), together as the use of COIL (collaborative online international learning) and eTwinning. Its main goal is to indicate successful strategies for the internationalisation of higher education programmes and means of effective collaborative instruction through digital technologies.
