Evaluating in Terms of Internationalization of the Faculty of Theology at Hatay Mustafa Kemal University

In a globalized world, internationalization is an inevitable phenomenon. The impact of internationalization in every field on education and training activities also affects higher education. From this point of view, it is expected that academicians working in universities in our country will give important clues to shape our future and to catch up with the level of modern civilizations.

At the end of the study, the faculty members of the newly established Faculty of Theology at Hatay MKU were put forward about the internationalization about the universities. As a result of the quantitative findings, it is unclear whether the academics do not have a parallel understanding of the motivation / support sub-dimension of their universities to encourage students to international mobility and that the university mission supports internationalization, and that there are not enough technological resources available for international research in universities.
