The Academic Mobility of Engineering Students: The Experience at Tomsk Polytechnical University
Eremina, Sof'ia L.
Russian Education and Society, v54 n11 p3-17 Nov 2012
In an increasingly global age, university students need to prepare themselves to be competitive in both domestic and foreign labor markets. This involves the acquisition of foreign languages, experience of a variety of educational and professional settings, and becoming part of influential networks. The case of Tomsk Polytechnical University illustrates how this may be achieved. (Contains 10 tables and 7 notes.) [This article was translated by Kim Braithwaite.]
