Abstract
This study explores the experiences and perceptions of transnational graduates from English medium instruction (EMI) programs at a Turkish higher education institution. A mixed-methods approach employing descriptive statistics and content analysis investigates how graduates perceive the impact of EMI on their content knowledge, English proficiency, career advancement, international exposure, and academic participation. Drawing on self-reported data, the study found that EMI programs contributed to professional development, facilitated career opportunities, and improved English language proficiency, particularly in technical vocabulary. Participants also reported feeling confident in their field-specific competencies and had better engagement with international communities and developments. Qualitative findings highlighted communication challenges experienced by transnational graduates when engaging with residents of their host communities. The study indicates the long-term outcomes of EMI programs for transnational graduates in today's interconnected and diverse professional landscape.
