Abstract
Australia, with its universities, is participating as one of the leading countries and employing many strategies to compete for status and ranking in the global education market. This chapter explores the characteristics of higher education that expect to develop young students as future global citizens by analysing 18 Bangladeshi higher education students' experiences in two Australian universities. In this qualitative study, pre-interview, survey, semi-structured interviews, and documentary analysis methods were used to collect data and discuss the ‘mobile' characteristics of Australian higher education. Moreover, through Bauman's critical lens, the chapter endeavours to unpack some distinctive features of globalised higher education. It claims to contribute to understanding Australian education's (mobile merchandise) neoliberal mobile characteristics that motivate young Bangladeshi students to be mobile and construct their future economic and moral aspirations as global citizens.
