This collection brings together diverse scholarly perspectives on international education across the United States and Canada, with particular attention to the themes of identity, inclusion, and the prospects of international students.The chapters explore workforce integration and economic contributions, pedagogical approaches for diverse learners, inclusion and equity initiatives, cross-cultural relationship building, and policy frameworks affecting international student experiences and post-graduation employment prospects. Drawing on empirical research, case studies, and personal narratives, this collection offers nuanced insights into the lived experiences of international students across various institutional contexts—from large research universities to Christian colleges and from STEM programs to agricultural education.
