Abstract

ABSTRACT The Caribbean has one of the lowest rates of student participation in study abroad programs. This comparative study aims to contribute to the research on business students’ attitudes toward studying abroad, specifically for students in public institutions in the Caribbean. The research shows that positive perceptions of students toward studying or internships do not necessarily depend on demographic or personal characteristics. A study conducted among business students from main campuses at the University of Puerto Rico (UPRRP) and the Autonomous University of Santo Domingo (UASD) shows that desire to live abroad, benefits from study/internship abroad, and self-confidence are determinant factors to participate in study/internship programs abroad. Even though each group of participants has its own set of peculiarities, the results are consistent with the findings from other studies.

影响商学院学生出国留学意愿的因素:来自加勒比海地区的证据
加勒比地区是海外留学项目学生参与率最低的地区之一。本比较研究旨在为商科学生,特别是加勒比地区公立院校学生的留学态度研究做出贡献。研究表明,学生对学习或实习的积极看法并不一定取决于人口统计学或个人特征。一项对来自波多黎各大学(uprp)和圣多明各自治大学(UASD)主校区的商科学生进行的研究表明,在国外生活的愿望、在国外学习/实习的好处以及自信是参加国外学习/实习项目的决定因素。尽管每组参与者都有自己的特点,但结果与其他研究的结果是一致的。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Teaching in International Business instructs international business educators, curriculum developers, and institutions of higher education worldwide on methods and techniques for better teaching to ensure optimum, cost-effective learning on the part of students of international business. It is generally assumed that the teaching of international business is universal, but that the application of teaching methods, processes, and techniques in varying socioeconomic and cultural environments is unique. The journal offers insights and perspectives to international business educators and practitioners to share concerns, problems, opportunities, and solutions to the teaching and learning of international business subjects.
