Abstract

Current trends in the internationalization of doctoral programs require new understandings of the formation of scholarly identity. This study explores the utility of a cosmopolitan perspective. It reports on identity projects sparked by Chinese students' participation in a doctoral workshop in Australia; it highlights the realization, retrieval, repositioning, and reshaping of the students' scholarly selves. This identity work mirrors the complexities induced by the internationalization of doctoral pedagogies. We present the students' identity work here to illuminate extant practice and further study of internationalized doctoral education.
