This chapter focuses on the international mobility of students, faculty members, educational programs, and higher education campuses in selected countries in Asia. The chapter fi rst introduces the changing policies of internationalisation of higher education in Asia in recent years. It then presents a general portrait of the international mobility of students and faculty members, cross-border educational programs and campuses at tertiary education in Asia. The chapter concludes by outlining characteristics of the international mobility of students, faculty members, educational programs and campuses and identifi es challenges facing Asia.
