Context:?Internationalization & Economic Globalization?

COVID-19 has had a profound impact on the world economy, the global governance system, the international political landscape and the global higher education. However, from a historical, dialectical and systematic perspective, the interdependence of human survival still exists, the basic development elements of maintaining the global higher education will not be swayed by the virus.?In the post COVID-19 era, internalization and global engagement continue to be crucial.
