摘要本文提供了“全球”欧洲大学国际化的特征，并讨论了国家在促进著名国立大学更大的国际化和竞争力水平方面的作用。该分析支持了先前的观点，即大学的全球排名在很大程度上基于研究，但也揭示了研究型大学学生人数的国际化也是为了提高研究能力。在这些大学中，学术人员的国际化与学生人数的国际化之间存在着积极的联系，这种联系与博士生人数之间的联系尤其强烈，这进一步强化了这一发现。最后，基于对两所具有不同全球竞争力水平的著名国立大学的分析，我们讨论了国家作为这些大学国际化和全球竞争力的核心支持者的作用，认为如果一个国家想让本国著名大学在全球范围内竞争，公共资金和支持是至关重要的。
AbstractsThis article provides a characterization of the internationalization of “global” European universities and discusses the role of the State in promoting greater internationalization and competitiveness levels of prominent national universities. The analysis supports previous arguments stating that global ranking of universities is strongly based on research, but reveals that the internationalization of research universities’ student population is also arranged to enhance research capacity. This finding is further reinforced by a positive association between the internationalization of the academic staff and the internationalization of the student population in one of those universities, being this association particularly strong with the doctoral student population. Finally, based on the analysis of two prominent national universities with different global competitiveness levels, we discuss the role of the State as a central supporter of these universities internationalization and global competitiveness arguing that public funding and support is critical if countries want to have national prominent universities competing at global level.
