Abstract

The study endeavored to explore the institutional internationalization efforts through the top management leadership skills and faculty research capability among the State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) in Region XI. The quantitative component made use of survey questionnaires administered to 400 participants. The method used was descriptive, correlational, and multi-regression analysis as it delved to test the theory of leadership skills among the SUCs heads, faculty research capability and their relationship to institutional internationalization efforts. There were 10 participants involved for the in-depth interview and seven informants for focus group discussion to examine their lived experiences as they engaged in research, their experiences with the leadership of their heads, and how these experiences shaped their attitudes, commitment, and aspirations with respect to institutional internationalization efforts. A triangulation mixed method design was used to compare and corroborate the results. Findings had shown that top management leadership skills and research capability of faculty influenced the institutional internationalization efforts among SUCs in Region XI.
