Abstract

The study object of the research described in this chapter is the internationalization of the public university both in Portugal and Spain. In this research, these countries' university is modeled as an open system in which the institutional and national levels are highlighted. The regional and global levels are indirectly considered by the influence they have on the national and institutional levels. A two-fold analysis was conducted: first, a preliminary qualitative one about the present situation of both Spanish and Portuguese public universities internationalization, based on the available official data sources; second, the quantitative analysis of the results got in the responded questionnaires. This study may contribute to understanding of the nature of Portuguese and Spanish public universities' internationalization process as well as the guidelines that may better contribute to reinforce their internationalization.
