International students encounter, more so than domestic students, challenges that can affect their academic performance. The student integration of international students which consists of both academic and social integration is a good predictor of how well students are going to succeed in a new academic setting. This research attempts to capture the experiences of international students from the global south in their integration in Manipal University, India. It looks at how well students both academically and socially integrate. Furthermore it tries to understand how extracurricular activities contribute to the social integration of international students. By conducting and analyzing ten in-depth interviews as part of a qualitative research study the purpose of this study is to gain knowledge on the experiences from international students in their integration in Manipal. date: 2016 date_type: published thesis_type: bachelor degree_programme: SGP tutors_name: Bailey, A keywords_local: Academic performance keywords_local: Social integration keywords_local: Academic integration keywords_local: Student integration keywords_local: International students keywords_local: South-south migration keywords_local: Extracurricular activities language_iso: en titleorder: International Student Integration in the Global South: The Academic and Social Integration of International Students in Manipal University dbi: 57ce9165415c7 imported_item: yes date_of_import: 2020-04-22 imported_from: http://scripties.frw.eldoc.ub.rug.nl/root/ba/SGP/2016/ereijenga/ import_source_file: theses-frw-20200422132454-57ce9165415c7.xml date_issued: 2016-01-01 description_company: University of Groningen citation: Reijenga, E (2016) International Student Integration in the Global South: The Academic and Social Integration of International Students in Manipal University.
