| Summary: | In order to analyze the internationalization process (I) and its results, considering scenarios, actors and perspectives, a long-range research project was started. The I is analyzed from the speeches of managers, academics, students of a public university in Mexico, and their various manifestations in practice. Higher education institutions have focused recently on strengthening teaching, research and management in a global way, seeking excellence, local, regional, national and international. This has been analyzed and documented with this project. Internationalization at Home (CI) is now addressed, which according to Beelen, J. (2011), was introduced in 1999 with the aim of making students competent interculturally and internationally without leaving their own city. The distinction of what this implies is necessary for those involved to use the terms with precision and with the same meaning, in addition to making it possible, as De Wit (2011) points out, not to lose sight of the importance of returning to the origin and look closely at the what, why and how of internationalization. The analysis of the information collected through online questionnaires is carried out considering categories such as: International awareness and intercultural skills, links between the levels of policy, planning and project (vertical dimension); the academic, the administrative and the operational (horizontal dimension) and the features: systemic, inclusive in its implementation and articulated at all strategic levels of university academic life. In this work, the findings and analysis of the items related to international awareness and intercultural skills, the perspective of teachers and students, are presented. |
