Abstract

By the end of 2020, China will become the largest destination for international students in Asia, with the number of international students studying in China reaching 500,000. In this context, the study of international students in China has become one of the most significant topics in the field of education. An analysis of the articles included in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) from 2000 to 2018 found that the number of articles related to international students in China increased with the increase in the number of international students in China. Researches were mainly focused on “education management” and “development methods”. However, there are still some topics need to be explored further such as the study of international students from important source countries and the admission and quality assurance of international students education in China.
