English for ICT Studies has 12 units, each of which is based on a different aspect of ICT. Odd-numbered units are based on listening (lecture/seminar extracts).

The course will be suitable, therefore, as the core component of a faculty-specific pre-sessional or foundation course of between 50 and 80 hours.
