摘要
With a notable rise in the number of students opting for overseas education, study abroad has developed into a competitive industry over the past few decades. This study aims to identify the essential factors that affect students' decisions to study abroad at Internalisation. A 32-item questionnaire spanning a range of topics was developed to address students' goals and motivations for studying abroad. It was scored on a five-point Likert scale. Next, Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) with AMOS is used to test the factors' validity and reliability. The study's conclusions will aid in the understanding of the factors influencing students' decisions and incentives to study abroad by policymakers and educational advisors.
