• Abstract:

  The internationalization of higher education is not a new subject; its occurrence refers to the origin of the first universities that have records. Factors such as globalization, the commercialization of higher education and the investments made by developed countries in the areas of research and academic training have made this topic more frequent in the 21st century. Knowing this, through a literature review, the present work aims to address the concept of internationalization of higher education, its development over the last fifty years, the four missions of the university and the positioning of Brazilian universities in this context. The study also cites some programs carried out by the Brazilian government to promote academic mobility and verifies the country's performance based on Unesco's statistical data on global flows of higher education students (2018-2019), where it is possible to assess whether the internationalization of the higher education in Brazil occurs either actively or passively.
