Advanced English for Speakers of Other Languages
The major combines proficiency enhancement in English language and learning methods (first year), with applied and contextual studies in media and writing, with advanced studies in theories of language and culture.
The major will prepare students from a non-English-speaking background to take their place as professional graduates in the English-speaking world, or to deal from their home country with the English-speaking world in areas such as trade, education, and communications.
The major is offered to students whose first language is not English and who have not had the major part of their formal schooling conducted in the English language.
