As the benchmark for the Core Curriculum within the CLE Framework, the English for Academic Purposes (EAP) Program focuses on research presentation and writing skills. This prepares SUSTech students for using English as the medium of their academic achievements now, and into their educational and professional careers.

The English for Academic Purposes program’s Midterm, labeled as “Group Academic Research Presentation”, is weighted as 30% of the overall grade for our course.  Here is a short video, put together by EAP Course Coordinator, Matthew Jellick, showcasing a bit about the project.
