First-Generation College Students and Study Abroad
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-95852-1 (ISBN)
Research shows that study abroad programs develop crucial life skills, provide valuable experiences, and enhance academic achievement. However, only a small percentage of first-generation students access these opportunities. By centering the voices and stories of first-generation students, this book advocates for equity in global education while reimagining study abroad as a more accessible and empowering experience.
This book asks how faculty, administrators, and staff can tap into the strengths of first-generation students to increase the number of those who take advantage of their opportunities and explores the ways in which first-generation students contribute to the success and vision of study abroad programs. It will be of interest to scholars studying educational outreach, higher education, and comparative and international education.
