  • “All Abroad”: Malaysians' Reasons for Seeking an Overseas-Based Doctorate
    The International Education Journal: Comparative Perspectives Vol. 13, No. 1, 2014 http://iejcomparative.org “All abroad”: Malaysians’ reasons for seeking an overseas-based doctorate Brendon Tagg Universiti Malaysia Terengganu and UCSI University This article examines the process by which nine junior Malaysian academics came to complete doctoral degrees in non-Malaysian universities. It expands the scope and refines the focus of an existing study that considered international students’ experiences in New Zealand. Part of the motivation for the current study was the researcher’s recognition that he had sometimes struggled to adjust to the Malaysian university system. And, indeed, despite the vast sums of money the Malaysian government spends training academic staff overseas, little is known about their motivations for studying abroad, their experiences abroad, and how their experiences abroad shape their interactions within local institutions when they return. The article begins with a brief introduction, a discussion of the study and a description of the chosen methodological approach. The following key themes are then discussed: ‘choosing to study overseas’, ‘choosing advisors’, ‘family influences’ and ‘pre-departure training programs’. Keywords: culture shock, doctoral studies, Malaysian students, overseas study INTRODUCTION The Malaysian academic climate is diverse, and the qualifications and experience of Malaysian academics vary immensely. While some established Malaysian universities are relatively competitive, others struggle to find academic staff with research-based masters degrees and are largely, therefore, only teaching institutions.
