Abstract

Malaysia has had a strong focus on internationalization since the introduction of the National Higher Education Strategic Plan 2007-2020 and in the Malaysian Education - Higher Education (PPM PT) 2015-2025 Blueprint. One of the countries that Malaysia has strategized for strategic partnership in education is South Korea. The partnership which started in 1962, has recently celebrated its 60 years of collaboration during the commemoration of diplomatic in February 2020. The absence of a representative model could result in complex challenges especially in identifying important and necessary steps to internationalization and further create financial, energy and time loss. Thus, this study aims to find the systematic literature review (SLR) on internationalization of higher education in South Korea for the Malaysian higher education. The development adapts the Define, Measure, Analyze, Design and Verify (DMADV) technique which is commonly used in the field of quality management. As such, the internationalization activities that are planned could be well coordinated for a sustainable internationalization process. In a longer run, the model should assist the Malaysian and South Korean education ministries to monitor the progress of internationalization in both countries.
