International university
An international university can be defined as one which is funded by the governments of many countries and thereby is controlled by the officials from the government of different countries. These universities are often formed by the regional and international organizations.
Another definition is that the international university is international due to its international reach, mainly driven by the curriculum offered, the international student body or the international faculty teaching and researching at the university.
The distinction between intergovernmental and international university is similar to the one between intergovernmental organization and international organization. International is a rather open-ended term, while intergovernmental specifically refers to the fact that the participating parties or members are sovereign states and intergovernmental organizations. As a result, only intergovernmental universities are subjects of international law.
