There are two EAP courses for graduate students. Students who need to take both courses will typically take one class at a time, along with their regular course work, although some students will take both classes in one semester.
- ENG G513: Academic Writing for Graduate Students (3 cr) – Focusing on writing for academic purposes, assignments are given that use materials from the students’ academic disciplines.
- ENG G520: Communication Skills for Graduate Students and ITAs (3 cr) – While focusing on the speaking and presentation skills required of International Teaching Assistants (ITAs), this class may also include non-ITAs who need to develop their spoken language skills or wish to have ITA positions in the future. Skills include pronunciation, classroom interaction, presentations, seminar discussions, and basic teaching strategies.
