If you build it, they may not come: Why Australian university students do not take part in outbound mobility experiences.

Abstract

Universities around the world seek to internalise students to prepare them for an increasingly globalised world. Outbound mobility experiences (OMEs) are recognised as one of the most effective ways to foster independent thinking, cultural sensitivity, and a sense of 'worldmindedness'. This article takes a case study from an Australian university and explores efforts to increase student participation rates in OMEs
