Transnational Competence

In this timely new contribution Koehn and Rosenau develop their transnational-competence framework and demonstrate the promise of its application across six critical professions: teacher education engineering business management social work sustainable-development (encompassing agricultural sciences public administration and natural-resources management) and medicine/health. Transnational Competence offers higher-education leaders around the world useful ideas for enhancing and transforming professional programs so that graduating practitioners will be prepared with the skills needed to manage horizon-rising challenges that connect populations ecosystems and fields of study. Aimed principally at higher-education leaders and graduating professionals throughout the world Transnational Competence focuses on the skills that tomorrow's practitioners will need to deal with what the authors term horizon-rising transboundary challenges.
