3 COURSE DESCRIPTIONS LNG 550 Remedial English Course for Post Graduate Students 2 (1 2 6) This course aims to instill the background language and skills necessary for undertaking LNG 600 and to raise the students confidence in using English. There will be no predetermined focus of the course, but instead it will concentrate on those areas where the students are weakest and need most improvement.

LNG 600 Insessional English Course for Post Graduate Students 3 (2 2 9) Prerequisite: LNG 550 Remedial English Course for Post Graduate Students or Pass grade from placement procedure This course aims to develop English language skills relevant to mature students in Graduate Degree Programmes in Engineering, Science and Technology. It will be based on practical skills, but will not be yet another grammar course. Rather its focus will be on the real language demands, particularly in reading and writing, faced by students in the course of their studies. It is project-focussed and simulates the stages in preparing and presenting research, from finding references to writing a final draft.
