| description | The internationalization in higher education is very popular around the word.

Therefore, this paper aims to research the challenges international academic staff face in terms of culture and discuss the influence of that. The paper will choose Chinese academic staff in the Nottingham university as research subjective, since Chinese academic staff are now the top group of international academic staff in the UK, and the state system and educational context are quite different between China and UK. The paper will use semi-structured interview as research method to find the challenges and influence of culture on them. |
