This study was initially designed to develop and validate the international education cooperation inventory of Chinese college students, by conducting expert review and a survey of 91 Chinese students. In the first phase, an initial pool of 11 items were generated based on concept analysis and a literature review. Moreover, the content was validated and reviewed by international cooperation experts in the field of higher education. The evaluation in the second phase consisted of an item analysis and an exploratory factor analysis. Following the development process, one item was removed due to low discrimination after performing the item analysis, and the questionnaire was finalized with 10 in 2 dimensions, which are overseas and domestic international cooperations with acceptable reliability and validity. It was found that most of the participants completed the questionnaire without difficulty in about 1-2 minutes, it can be claimed that the IEC is an easy-to-use questionnaire that can be applied in future studies.
