▼ Projected to reach one million people next year, international students in the United States are undergoing a transformative educational migration. Moving away from the existing study abroad paradigm is the first step to more accurately understand the lived experience of an educational migrant. Discovering the perceptions of what value an American education holds and accomplishes for students back home is central to revealing the major conditions and influences both propelling educational migration, the experience, and the course, features, and impacts of reentry migration. What prompts students to engage in this risky transformative activity? How can U.S. academic institutions better adapt to the international student experience by adapting a lens of migration? What is the role of cultural capital acquired while abroad in the process of reentry migration? Is the reentry process facilitated by the educational objectives obtained in the U.S? This study examines the lived experience of South Korea and Saudi Arabians as a window into the lives of international students as educational migrants. Acquiring cultural capital - the personal resources and assets an individual uses to negotiate their social environment - abroad is perceived as a way to better navigate the conditions of economic precarity. However, what unfolds is a significant transformative experience in the interstices of liminal spaces abroad that often results into a liminal condition upon reentry migration. The role of cultural capital acquired from the educational migration process has a stronger influence than the actual educational achievements obtained. This research seeks to work towards an anthropology of higher education, bringing the topic of student mobility into an anthropological frame in order to expand scholarship and inform educational curriculum and policy affecting the international student experience.

▼ With the exponential growth in international students pursing postsecondary degrees in the U.S., an increasing number of faculty members and staff have raised questions and concerns about supporting international students’ academic engagement. Although prior studies have explored the educational experiences of international students in the United States (U.S.), few have investigated international student engagement at four-year institutions. Little is known about the engagement and overall institutional satisfaction of Chinese international students (CISs), the top represented international student group in the U.S., and how their experiences compare to those of U.S. domestic students (U.S. students). In this quantitative study, I compared CIS and U.S. student engagement in effective learning strategies (LS), collaborative learning (CL), and student-faculty interaction (SF), which may be influenced by culture, at U.S. four-year colleges and universities. I also examined the relationship between LS, CL, SF, and overall institutional satisfaction, and compared how such relationships vary between CISs and U.S. students. Finally, I investigated the variations of LS, CL, SF, and overall institutional satisfaction between first-year and senior CISs, and I explored whether class standing moderates the effect of country of origin on LS, CL, SF, and overall institutional satisfaction. The data was from the 2015 administration of the National Survey of Student Engagement, a large-scale and multi-institutional survey. This study contributes an important dimension to the existing literature regarding CIS engagement in U.S. higher education. Using Hofstede's (2001) Dimensions of Culture (e.g., individualism vs. collectivism, uncertainty avoidance, and power distance) as the conceptual grounding, this study helps CISs and U.S. students establish a mutual understanding of each other's engagement in LS, CL, and SF. This study also provides recommendations and implications to faculty and practitioners for supporting the cross-cultural integration and mutual engagement of CISs,even the entire international student group, and U.S. students through college teaching, learning,, student advising, and co-curricular activities. Advisors/Committee Members: Nelson Laird, Thomas F (advisor).

▼ ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine how culture influences the experiences of international West African students enrolled in a two years college degree program. Three research questions guided this study: What cultural factors impact African international students’ educational experience? What strategies do African international students employ to negotiate their educational experiences? In what ways do these strategies help or hinder African international students’ educational experience? A qualitative case study methodology was employed for the research design, and in-depth, semi-structured interviews were chosen for data collection. Ten international students enrolled in degree seeking programs at an urban two year college located in central Georgia were interviewed about their learning experiences. All participants were international, undergraduate students pursuing their Associate degrees who had taken at least four core courses during the past year. An international student is defined as one who was born outside of the United States and for whom English is a second language. The phrases ‘international students’ and ‘foreign students’ will be used interchangeably throughout this study. The interviews were transcribed by the researcher herself, and the data were analyzed using the constant comparative method to generate major themes. Data analysis revealed that the West African students’ felt more or a greater sense of compliance as a result of their respect for their authority and their parental direction/expectations for them to succeed. Their experiences were characterized by the different levels of competitiveness they encountered in terms of economics and access to education. They also exhibited a higher level of anxiety because of inadequate language proficiency, communication skills, and processing/completing course work. The second category of findings delineated the strategies African international students employ to negotiate their educational experiences. African cultural values and school norms greatly influenced these African students’ educational experience. Based on the findings, three conclusions were drawn from this study: The first is that some West African students will experience conflicting messages from their African culture and the newly encountered Western, Eurocentric culture. The second conclusion is that the West African students interviewed clearly evidenced that cultural factors are important in influencing the educational experiences of West African students in American two year colleges. Last, learning for these West African students is a high-risk-taking enterprise that works better when they are made to feel more secure and centered in who they are and what they are already capable of doing before they are asked to take on new ventures.

▼ While research on international students adaptation within the United States has been growing in the last several years, research on positive experiences of international students is limited (Tseng & New ton, 2002). The literature on international students highlights their challenges and difficulties in the United States as they pursue their educational goals (Cheng, 1999; Han, 1996; Lin & Yi, 1997; Ying & Liese, 1994). One variable that highlights the positive psychological perspective of individuals is hope. There have been no studies examining the relationship of hope with international populations (Lopez et al., 2002). Therefore this study proposed to examine the relationship of international students’ personality traits with hope. In addition, international students’ support systems in relation to hope were examined. The present study also sought to provide an empirical foundation for understanding the factors that contribute to the acculturation of international students within the United States. This study explored the positive psychological constructs of hope, optimism and problem solving as well as personality traits and support systems. In addition, problem solving was utilized as a mediating variable which was defined as a complex interplay of cognitive, affective, and behavioral processes for the purpose of adapting to internal or external demands or challenges (Heppner & Krauskopf, 1987). Problem solving was a mediating variable between the relationship of hope and acculturative stress and the relationship between optimism ad acculturative stress. Results indicated that extraverted international students with friendships as part of their support system experienced higher levels of hopefulness. Findings also suggested that international students who are hopeful, with perceptions of their problem solving abilities being effective, with friendships as part of their support system and extraverted have decreased levels of acculturative stress. However, there was no relationship between optimism and acculturative stress. Finally, the results indicated that problem solving as a mediating variable had a small effect on the relationship between hope and acculturative stress. In addition, problem solving had a small effect on the relationship between optimism and acculturative stress although the relationship between optimism and acculturative stress was not significant. Implications of these results are offered as well as recommendations for expanding the research. Advisors/Committee Members: Linda F. Campbell.

▼ This research describes what motivates Vietnamese students to come to the U.S. to study for a degree, what outcomes they expect, and what they experience academically and culturally while studying in the U.S. Currently the surge of international students from Vietnam has reached an all time high of 13,112 students to the U.S. This moves the relatively small South East Asian nation to the ranking of ninth among all nations for the number of international students sent to the U.S. in depth interviews were conducted fall semester 2011 with 11 students enrolled in two large public universities in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Denton Metro area. the participants were students from Vietnam holding J-1 or F-1 visas who were in their sophomore year or beyond. Interviews were conducted with these undergraduate and graduate students on the campus where each was enrolled. Interview transcripts were provided to participants for their review and comments. Ethnograph qualitative research software was used to analyze and code the data. These students reported that the increased number of students coming to study in the U.S. is because of the reputation of higher education in the U.S., relatives living in the U.S. who create a support system, and economic growth in Vietnam which has made education abroad more accessible. More students are coming to the U.S. for study because of the respect that these students families and friends have for the educational system and potential of opportunity that a U.S. degree brings. Meaningful relationships with other students provide a better and broader educational experience for Vietnamese international students. Vietnamese international students desire not only gainful employment from their degree but also a balanced growth experience that includes friendships, immersion in the culture, and being responsible members of the host society. These students made strategic use of the community college to enhance their higher education experience. the findings indicate that universities and colleges interested in attracting students from Vietnam should forge partnerships between community colleges and universities and with local Vietnamese communities to promote recruitment, affordability, retention, and graduation. Advisors/Committee Members: Newsom, Ronald W., Whitson, Kathleen K., Stewart, Bryan.

[Truncated abstract] My experience of being a Thai overseas student in Perth, Western Australia, has led me to this ethnographic study of the phenomenon of overseas study in general, and of Thai postgraduate students in Perth in particular. The existing academic research on international students tends to focus on a single aspect of their experience, for example, the attractions of the host country, the difficulties encountered by students, or the adaptive strategies they use to negotiate their studies. None of this work is based on ethnographic research and there are very few accounts of international students from Thailand. In contrast, my study takes a holistic approach to the lived experience of Thai students in Australia. I explore the microcosm of day-to-day living and consider how this connects individuals to events and priorities evident at the macro level of contemporary Thai society. I employ the theoretical concept of 'rite of passage' as a central analytical framework to consider whether Thai people who have studied successfully overseas undergo a transformation, on their return to Thailand, in terms of improved social status and enhanced social and cultural capital. I use several dimensions of the rites of passage model to explore the impact of global social and economic transformation on the way international education is promoted to students and their families, and how collective changes in Thai society contribute to the overseas student phenomenon. I engage critically with the 'rite of passage' concept by considering its analytical values and limitations at both micro and macro levels of the societies that my research participants navigate as they cross national borders. Fieldwork, conducted in 2005-2006, included participant observation and indepth interviews with 30 informants. These students are divided into two groups according to age, type of funding, and the academic degree they were enrolled in. I compare the experiences of these g

in terms of their motivations to undertake overseas education, their social standing in Thailand and their financial status. Parental influence in the decision to study overseas was highly significant for the younger group and is explored here through an analysis of a reciprocal concept of bunkhun. These elements relate to the separation phase in the rites of passage model. I explore the liminal phase of the process through an examination of Thai students' experiences of community whilst living in Perth and their strategies for maintaining contact with family and friends at home. I employ the concept of transnationalism to discuss these day-to-day connections. With regards to incorporation, the third stage in the classic rite of passage model, I employ the concepts of cultural capital, status, honour, and cosmopolitanism to examine the students’ experiences of reintegration on their return to Thailand...
