Measuring internationalization

What distinguishes an institution as more significantly internationalized than another? The International Outlook Ranking (IOR) includes primarily criteria related to the number of international students, international staff, and the number of publications where multiple authors from different nations are listed. Hans de Wit suggested that the IOR rankings are flawed because they do not include broader criteria and because the rankings are more related to an institution's location (small countries that have borders with other countries) than to a deep commitment to internationalization.
