Some of the most widely used strategies to internationalize are agreements (or MOUs) that establish an expectation of faculty/student exchange or research partnerships. However, many of these are simply "ghost MOUs" that could be utilized but seldom are.
Branch campuses are a deeper approach to internationalizations but another model is joint ventures. The joint ventures described in "Deep Internationalizatiaon and Infrastructure" are designed to build intellectual and research capacity for all the partners involved, rather than what can sometimes be a one-way donor/export model. As various approaches are considered, most of the evidence indicates that respectful and full engagement is harder to achieve but almost always results in much greater benefit to all.
