The COVID-19 pandemic prompted discussions on the future of international and transnational education. Many higher education institutions are forming international partnerships and implementing joint-degree programs to enhance their internationalisation efforts and curriculum, improve global rankings and advancing quality education for all, in line with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG4).

Joint Degrees, Shared Goals explores the localisation of internationalised curricula within joint-degree programs, focusing on their role in supporting quality education and enhancing graduate employability. Examining the implementation of these programs in Vietnam, chapters draw on perspectives from various stakeholders and showcase how localising internationalised curriculum (LIC) strategies can transform education. Case studies demonstrate how these programs equip students with the skills needed for success in both local and international contexts, thereby improving their employability.

Serving as a vital resource for educators, policymakers, and administrators aiming to internationalise curricula in non-Western settings, Joint Degrees, Shared Goals underscores that localising internationalised curricula is not just a means to enhance educational quality, but also a potent tool for boosting employability, fostering innovation, and preparing graduates for a globalised world. With its blend of theoretical insights and practical recommendations, this is a comprehensive guide to advancing internationalisation while aligning with local educational and cultural contexts.
