Purpose: The present research aims to design a model for the internationalization of the higher education system with an emphasis on academic research. Methodology: This study is qualitative, and the foundational data theory method was the criterion of action. The statistical community included university professors and experts in the field of management and educational sciences at Mohaghegh Ardabil University. Using the purposeful sampling method and applying the theoretical saturation criterion, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 people as participants in the research. Guba and Lincoln’s (1985) method was used to check validity and reliability. Findings: The results of data analysis during three stages of open coding, theoretical coding, and selective coding indicate 93 primary codes, 18 secondary codes, and six general categories, which in the framework of a paradigmatic model were identified, including causal conditions (development of international cooperation, donation awards and certificates, prestigious festivals and conferences), central phenomenon (drafting of international standards, quality of academic research), strategies (diplomacy, budgeting and financial support, organizational policy), intervening conditions (control and continuous review, updating information technologies, consulting and research services), background conditions (empowering faculty members and staff, academic leadership, participation and teamwork spirit), and consequences (gaining competitive advantage, developing a culture of critical thinking and criticism, developing a spirit of research). Conclusion and suggestions: In order to gain international recognition, universities need to take steps to internationalize research in higher education; they need a model that guides them to achieve this goal. The model presented in this research can be helpful. Innovation and originality: This study differs from previous studies in that it deals with the relationship between the internationalization of the higher education system and university studies.
