Abstract
This chapter describes the state of the art in the area of
internationalization of higher education (IHE) and English-medium
instruction (EMI) by setting out the key concepts, research methods and
areas of controversy to be addressed in the various chapters of the volume.
The first section of the chapter looks broadly at internationalization
as a field, outlining the areas of study, and the findings of large-scale
surveys as well as identifying the most popular areas of research.
second thematic section looks at how internationalization intersects with
English-medium instruction, paying particular attention to language
policy, the role of English as a lingua franca (ELF), and the teaching and
learning of disciplinary content. The section concludes with some recommendations
for research and teaching in EMI.
