Abstract
The modern wave of globalization has created a demand for increased international mindedness (im) and intercultural competence (ic) among graduates who will soon enter the 21st-century workforce. To meet this end, educational institutes must focus on im and ic as these notions broaden thinking and build tolerance and respect for other cultures and communities, thus contributing to peace and harmony. Hence, the importance of internationally minded and interculturally aware teachers cannot be underestimated in today’s global scenario. However, in pakistan, pre-service teachers are merely exposed to the course contents which enhance their im and ic. Therefore, the present study investigates the im and ic among pre-service teachers in universities of pakistan in relation to their year of study and gender. The study also aims to identify the factors that influence the development of these skills and to explore the relationship between im and ic and their dimensions. Using a concurrent mixed-methods approach, the study collected data from a sample of 516 pre-service teachers from two public universities in pakistan. The data collection tools included a survey questionnaire and semi-structured interviews.
