In this event, Lilan Chen and Futao Huang will discuss an exploratory study of semi-structural interviews with 40 full-time international faculty hired in Japanese universities with various backgrounds.  

Drawing on a cognitive, affective, and behaviour model, the key findings of this study suggest that from the perspectives of international faculty, cognitively their integration refers to a two-way process engaging the efforts from both international faculty and their host country-Japan, displaying in work, social-cultural and psychological dimensions.
