More than 40 years ago, Congress recognized the need for higher education to educate Americans about global cultures, leading to the National Defense Education Act, later known as the Higher Education Act. Title VI of this act has significantly supported foreign languages and area studies in universities and colleges, enabling millions of Americans to gain knowledge about different parts of the world. Today, new issues and perspectives arise as Americans increasingly encounter diverse cultures, business practices, histories, and ideologies. The U.S. is also called to intervene in international crises, highlighting the need for informed opinions on complex global problems. This work is aimed at administrators and planners in U.S. education, detailing the evolution of international studies from its origins under Title VI to current shifts in research, teaching, and outreach. A significant focus is on internationalizing K-12 curricula. The text concludes with insights into future trends affecting international scholarship and training in the new century, along with an extensive bibliography of international resources.
