A internacionalização é um processo que percorre as universidades em escala global há quarenta anos. Em particular, a modalidade mais tradicional, consubstanciada nas ações de mobilidade acadêmica, é a que tem concentrado o maior peso dos esforços institucionais e das pesquisas realizadas até o momento. Neste século, ganham relevância novas modalidades, que encontram a sua expressão mais concreta na Internacionalização do Currículo. Esta pesquisa propõe 5 dimensões de análise que permitem observar o processo de internacionalização do currículo nas universidades argentinas: contexto institucional, planos de estudos comparáveis e compatíveis, utilização de sistema de créditos, titulação conjunta e dupla titulação e ensino em língua diferente do nativo. A partir de dois casos (Universidade Nacional de San Martín e Universidade Nacional de Cuyo), analisa-se como se desenvolve este processo de internacionalização e as particularidades que assume. Um dos aspectos centrais esteve associado à tensão entre os níveis individual, disciplinar e institucional que passam pela análise de cada caso em particular, e assumem um papel importante na comparação, permitindo tirar conclusões sobre as universidades públicas argentinas e o caminho. em que o processo de internacionalização se desenvolve no sistema de ensino superior.
