This chapter serves to introduce this book, which collectively answers the above questions within four thematic areas of scholarship about international student experiences—social identities, academic experiences, personal wellbeing, and post-study experiences. Each contributor explores unique issues and experiences of international students from multiple perspectives. The book paints a holistic picture about different areas of student support vis-a-vis their needs, experiences, and success while situating these issues in light of global/local disruptions in higher education and international education due to dramatically shifting geopolitical and economic dynamics.
