Since the 1960s, Japan has been a historical leading study abroad destination for US undergraduate students. This book explores the long-term impacts of study abroad through a lens of knowledge diplomacy and the cultivation of individuals with understanding of the host country and world through transformative international experiences. Based on extensive original survey data and interviews with alumni over nearly 50 years of the Japan Study Program, the book provides a historical perspective on the personal impacts of study abroad on academic, professional, and personal development. The author further explores knowledge diplomacy seen as the creation of an in-depth understanding of the host country, familiarity of the host region, and awakened consciousness of the world through subsequent life experiences. Recipient of the 2020 Best Book Award from the Comparative and International Education Society (CIES) Study Abroad and International Students Special Interest Group.

Statistics are provided on U.S. students overseas, with data coming from the Study Abroad Survey, a survey of 2,896 accredited U.S. institutions of higher education with 1,898 responding for a 65% response rate. Details are provided on the characteristics and destinations of the 48,483 students abroad. Reasons for the increase in study abroad include a desire among American youth in the 1970s and 1980s to understand a world and network of international relationships offering exciting opportunities and perils, the increasing strength of the American dollar against foreign currencies, and a softening of U.S. cultural attitudes toward foreign lands. Obstacles to such study include doubts about the academic rigor of such programs, suspicion about non-academic motives of program promoters, and regret at loss of time spent on the home campus. The predominant direction of student mobility in the world today is from Third World countries to the host countries of the West. Important outflows from the western countries are also occurring, but data have been scarce about U.S. students overseas. This study provides statistics on world region (with the vast majority of study abroad students in Western Europe); leading countries (with the highest being the United Kingdom, France, Spain, and Italy); field of study (led by liberal arts and foreign languages); duration of study (more than one-third staying for one semester); and gender (two-thirds female). Statistical data are provided on university name, city, and study abroad student count. (SM)

While it is assumed that American undergraduates who study abroad derive unique benefits from the experience, until now its actual impact has not been assessed. This book, which presents the findings of a long-term evaluation project, provides the kind of systematic and comprehensive data needed to document and give future guidance to programs of study abroad. Using comparative measures, the authors examine the effects of overseas study in terms of education, career, personal satisfaction, and cultural values. Undergraduates in four U.S. college and university programs involving nearly thirty European institutions were chosen for the study. The focus of the research is the role of study abroad in students' acquisition of foreign language proficiency, knowledge of and concern for foreign cultures and international issues, attitudes toward their home country and its values, and career objectives and accomplishments. Student profiles indicate consistent patterns in motivation, achievement, and satisfaction that relate to the experience abroad. In their conclusion, the authors look at the implications of their findings in the context of our times and society and offer suggestions for some new directions for study abroad in the coming years. This analysis will be relevant for educational decision-makers, funding organizations, government, and the research community.
