In line with NUCB's mission statement, this English language course aims to educate and inspire students to become innovative and ethical leaders through the medium of English. In so doing, it is hoped they can grasp and take on the ideal of ʻFrontier Spiritʼ and the ability to create knowledge in English for the advancement of business and society.

*This is a SAC compulsory course --> The May TOEIC is necessary to receive course credit.

This advanced English language course provides students with complex readings and listening activities that emphasize the foundational English learned in the previous terms. The productive and receptive tasks will contain material at the CEFR B2 & C1 and TOEIC® 700 levels score range. This course has a special focus on grammar and vocabulary relevant for the TOEIC® exam learned through reading, writing, listening, speaking, and communication tasks that reinforce previously covered materials throughout the current and previous academic terms but with an increase in the complexity of the materials presented and the tasks required of the students. Across the classes, assignments and tasks are presented in individual, pair and group work formats along with homework and individual study components for active learning. This course also involves the required completion of 20 hours of self-directed learning in the SAC with the support of SAC staff and SAC volunteers.

Building on the previous 500, and 600 core courses, this course will further strengthen students' four English language skills of speaking, listening, reading, and writing, in order to prepare them in their pursuit of graduation and post-graduation goals, including job searching, job application and /or further academic study.
