Multiculturalism, Higher Education and Intercultural Communication

Series editor: Jason Laker, Professor and Chair in the Department of Educational Counselling, San Jose University, USA

This book explores how multiculturalism should be promoted throughout higher education due to its benefits for students. It adopts a strengths-based student-centred perspective and offers practical illustrations of how multicultural education can instigate students to understand each other and to relate to each other meaningfully. With the rise of international students in higher education across the globe it is crucial that institutions promote multicultural education for their wider communities.
