Broadening Our Understanding of “International Academic Staff”: Nationality as a New Marker of Diversity
Keywords:
United Kingdom, international staff in higher education, diversity, adaptationAbstract
International academic staff in higher education are considered per se a signal of attractiveness and success. In this article, we discuss the findings of a recent study on international staff working in the United Kingdom. International staff are now fully immersed in all academic functions in their institutions and involved in wider organizational constraints, which raises the issue of their adaptation. Nationality appears to be an important and different marker of diversity.
