The EDC is an intensive 2-year program for highly motivated students aimed at developing English communication skills with a special focus on Oral Communication. Students learn to speak on both casual and professional levels on diverse topics of current public issues and personal interests using appropriate vocabulary. A variety of media is employed such as newspapers, books, public radio and television news, and online information. Assignments consist of various presentations and reports aimed at themes relevant to post-graduation.
In order to be successful, students must take advantage of the ample opportunities for self-learning such as: LL, web materials, reading, and writing. This challenging course requires extreme dedication on the students’ parts, but committed students will leave the course ready for the professional English world. The three overlapping goals of the EDC are to develop: English language skills, lifelong learning skills, and professional skills.
