English has become an essential tool of success for engineers, and is increasingly important. In this class, we learn about a number of interesting topics in the media using real materials. We use online content (video, etc.) to practice listening and reading as homework, and in class we do a lot of speaking. This course will introduce some fundamentals of academic and technical writing There will be grammar and vocabulary that is applicable to both TOEIC and engineering communication (but TOEIC is not a focus of the course). We spend time on structured writing and speaking, including group presentations and team projects. This course is about improving your ability and confidence to use English in modern interconnected world, and you will learn some effective reading, writing, and speaking methods to do so.

English is a key skill in engineering, academia, and business in today's interconnected world. This course aims to give you the skills needed to participate in today's world. We will combine natural native-speaker learning methods with methods based on scientific research. The objective of this course is for students to gain skills in effective English communication in a global environment with the focus on engineering. There will be lots of speaking (in pairs and in groups). You will learn some technical vocabulary useful for engineering, and how to structure your ideas and present your projects (group presentations), You will learn some grammar, but it is not the focus. By the end of this course students should have a better understanding of global English as used for academic/engineering purpose; students will be able to communicate across cultures more effectively and naturally; will be better able to participate with confidence in discussions; will be able to use and understand measurements and specifications particular to engineering; will be able to explain and understand graphs and diagrams; will be able to summarize and discuss key ideas; will be able to express opinions and ideas, and; will be able to plan and give presentations.
