The purpose of this research is to examine the meaning of the experiences of
the Vietnamese recipients of the Korean government scholarship, Global
Korea Scholarship (GKS). This research was done to reveal the role of
international scholarships that help to improve access to overseas education
and help to promote social change. With the advent of the global knowledge
economy, the importance of higher education for economic and social
development has been highlighted, along with higher education being seen as
a public good. Accordingly, the role of international scholarships that enable
the opportunity for quality higher education is gaining significance. In
particular, this study looks at international scholarships in higher education as
a means of educational development. Indeed, in recent research, the role of
international scholarships that nurture individuals as change agents, who
contribute to wider positive social change, draws attention beyond the role to
raise human capital or facilitate access.
This study set university lecturers as the main research participants. Global
Korea Scholarship, as an international scholarship, provided Vietnamese
recipients with a chance to study in Korea where they could be equipped with
knowledge and skills to be university lecturers and the opportunity to feel
responsible and proud as government scholarship recipients. The research
participants did suffer from some difficulties such as academic burdens, lack
of support for international students, and language issues but did overcome
them and achieved advancements both personally and academically.
The advancement of individual scholarship recipients has also led to
changes in Vietnamese universities. As internationally educated lecturers, the
Vietnamese scholarship recipients are contributing to the development of
education and research in their universities at high-level positions. The
research participants, in addition, perceived responsibility in themselves for
the continued development of Vietnamese society. This responsibility notably
appeared as being a good example in Vietnamese society with academic
contributions, as well as further promoting good relationships between Korea
and Vietnam.
This study’s findings showed that positive social change can be eventually
realized through the agency of individual scholarship recipients and that
environmental conditions are crucial for the mobilization of overseasacquired knowledge and skills to scholarship recipients’ home countries.
Moreover, alumni networks and collective actions can catalyze further social
change. This study has the academic implication that qualitatively
understands the aspects of social change from international scholarships
through the role of the individual recipients and suggests the policy
implications of the GKS program.
