A timely contribution to the study of transnational higher education in China, this volume focuses on graduate employability and how to nurture Glocal Talents via Glocalised Higher Education, specifically in the context of transnational higher education programmes and transnational universities. Offering readers a background on the conceptualisation of glocal talents, education policy frameworks of glocalised higher education and the approaches to cultivating the desired talents in and beyond China, Part 1 of the book suggests various practical models and frameworks for nurturing glocal talents in different regions and universities. In Part 2, the authors use a focal case study to present in-depth investigations into leadership, formal and informal curricula, and employability of graduates from the Sino-Foreign Cooperative Education Institution (SFCEI). The book makes an argument for how glocal talents should be better equipped to fit into a profession or an environment that requires the mindset and competence to bring the global, national and local into individual relationships for sustainable development of mankind. This comprehensive investigation into every section of glocal knowledge and visions provides readers a clear picture on how glocal talents could be practically nurtured through glocalised higher education. Due to its unique exploration of the visions and practices of the leaders, academics, curriculum designers, and practitioners in the specific context of the more than 2000 SFCEIs, this is a must-read for students, researchers, policymakers, leaders, as well as formal and informal curriculum designers involved in international higher education (IHE), comparative education, and educational research.
