This paper addresses two topics that are viewed important to the future of most institutions of higher learning. One is an increased international focus, for extended student enrolment and also for facilitating international experiences to already enrolled students. The second deals with establishing international partnerships, which not only will provide a receiver of exchange students but will also, as in the case presented, provide a partner for educational joint ventures, resulting in the establishment of innovative, new and student-attractive degree programmes. The example given presents curriculum design and work leading to the establishing of an undergraduate degree in edutainment software design at a Swedish and a British university, and an extended outlook, to also incorporate other overseas partners over time, initially from the U.S.A., Australia and New Zealand.
