Product Description

This book investigates the impact of language learning and study abroad on the career options and choices of US-based alumni of all ages.It reports on the results of a mixed-methods study which used both an extensive nationwide survey and qualitative life history interviews with 54 participants systematically selected to represent a broad range of backgrounds and professions.International education experiences are shown to exert considerable influence on the aspirations and career paths of individuals in a wide variety of fields (e.g. education, healthcare, business, government service).The long-term benefits of language study are illustrated both in narratives from individuals whose work requires proficiency beyond English and from participant comments on improvement in their use of English for international communication.The book will be of relevance to a wide audience of international education professionals in addition to researchers and students in applied linguistics and language education.
