EAP Plus allows students to commence their entry into an English for Academic Purposes course earlier. Successful applicants can enter the course at pre-intermediate level and immediately begin developing their English language and study skills in an academic context.

The EAP Plus program is suitable for students who have met the academic requirements of a QUT degree program but have not achieved the required English language level. Successful completion of the EAP Plus course provides a pathway into a QUT undergraduate or postgraduate program.

In this program, students begin developing their English language and study skills in an academic context from a pre-intermediate level. The EAP Plus program focuses on a more in-depth academic English instruction in the following areas:

  • Academic reading and note-making
  • Academic writing
  • Listening and note-taking from lectures
  • Speaking in academic settings
  • Seminars and presentations
  • Academic study skills
  • Computing and Internet skills
  • Library research

Students will sit a placement test at the beginning of their course. EAP Plus has its own internal assessment consisting of exams and assignments, and successful students will meet QUT's English language requirements.

(1) Successfully complete the QUT International College EAP entry test
