[quote=Anonymous]OP, I used to work in the field you are currently targeting. I'm here to tell you that this job absolutely does not require any academic credentials, let alone a PhD. The entire point of that job - the only one! - is to sell your university, and not twenty-five others just like it, to foreign students with cash. It's a sales and marketing position, which for reasons of gentility is now called "engagement" or "development". But all you're doing will be selling. Come study here, not there. Come partner with us, not with them. The entire enterprise of the U.S. academia is vying for the same pool of global affluent class that wants its children educated in the U.S. , and that's why it even has people with job titles such as this.
