Popis: Recently, the internationalization of higher education has been one of the topics on the agenda of researchers and representatives of educational institutions. Thus, I also approached this aspect in my research for my doctoral thesis. In the context of internationalization, education is considered a 'strategic partner' that can decisively influence the development of the national economy. The management of educational institutions plays a strategic role at the branch level. The process of internationalization of the educational activity of institutions to obtain the competitive advantage is encouraged and supported by various means (market entry facilities, specialized assistance in the process of implementing investment projects) by the host countries governments. Globalization is seen as a continuous process, characterized by the particularities like the development of foreign investments, the amplification of export activities and the development of strategic alliances at the international level. Due to globalization, higher education has become more receptive to the forces of the international market by accentuating the cross-border movement not only of students, professors and researchers in universities but also by the extent of international cooperation, through the development of branches and extensions of universities in countries other than the host country of the institution. Higher education is no longer a sector dominated by the state monopoly but is increasingly targeted by the private sector, following the corporate model, with profit-loss balances and high rates of return on investment. The level of research funding in universities is an important factor in motivating the internationalization of higher education, especially for students in master and doctoral cycles. Many World Bank officials tend to see strengthening higher education as a key strategy for poverty reduction.
