Using the case of Chinese visiting scholars at one western Canadian University, this two-phase research project explores how fostering collaboration between international visiting scholars, the host university, and the community promotes internationalization. The first phase examines the impact of the visiting scholars’ social interaction on and off campus on the satisfaction and success of their stay in Canada. Based on these findings, phase two addresses ways the community could benefit from interacting with international visitors. As a result, a partnership model is proposed which connects the interests of the university, international visitors, and the local community and emphasizes mutual benefit, shared learning, cross cultural understanding, collaboration and sustainability. Resume Ce projet de recherche en deux phases explore comment promouvoir l’internationalisation en encourageant la collaboration entre les professeurs invites, l’universite et la communaute. Ce projet se base sur le cas concret d’un professeur chinois invite a une universite canadienne. La premiere phase analyse le niveau de satisfaction et de succes du professeur invite dans toutes ses interactions sociales, dans et en dehors de l’universite. La deuxieme phase du projet reprend les resultats de la premiere phase et propose differentes interactions entre le professeur invite et la communaute, interactions favorables dans les deux sens. En conclusion, l’article propose un modele de collaboration qui developpe des interets conjoints entre l’universite, le visiteur international et la communaute. Ce type de modele met l’accent sur les benefices et l’apprentissage partages, la comprehension interculturelle, la collaboration et la viabilite Introduction Many universities have seen an increasing number of Chinese visiting scholars spend a significant amount of time in their institutions (Zweig, Changgui & Rosen, 2004).

Even less is known about the local community’s knowledge and reaction towards visiting scholars and the potential benefits arising from interacting with them. With the death of Mao Zedong in 1976 and the new leadership under Deng Xiaoping, came a major policy shift in China from a focus on political development to one of economic pursuit. Among other things this led to new policies and strategies in the area of higher education. One of the initiatives to
