Academics

English has become the established language of scholarly communication. It’s recognized as the international language of science and engineering. Academic reward structures in many countries place great emphasis on publication in international journals that are mostly English-language. As technology advances globally, engineers must be able to communicate across national and cultural boundaries, and English is the vehicle for professionals advancing technology today.


As more and more companies are working on international projects, English is increasingly used by scientists across the world to communicate with all parties involved.  As a result, English language skills are both a common requirement and a valuable asset for career progression for every type of engineering background, such as Civil, Biochemical, Agricultural, Mechanical, Chemical, Petroleum, and Aeronautical Engineers.


The course is designed to help develop the communicative performance of scientists who wish to improve their abilities in English when dealing with their staff, other managers, suppliers, external colleagues and other technologists internally or internationally.
