The English Language Center is pleased to offer AAE 491 Section 001: Special Topics in Effective Oral Communication for Graduate Students in Spring 2022. This 3-credit course is open to international graduate students who have already met the MSU minimum proficiency requirement for English (through MSUET, TOEFL, IELTS, or completion of required ELC coursework) but who would like to further refine their oral language skills in English. The course familiarizes students with essential aspects of effective communication in the academic setting, including features of English pronunciation, interaction strategies, and variables affecting fluency. Students will practice and receive feedback on their communicative effectiveness in contexts such as class discussions, groupwork, and mock conference presentations.
Regular MSU tuition applies; however, students with tuition waivers may apply their waiver to cover the cost of tuition. For questions or enrollment interest, please contact Patricia Walters, ELC Associate Director, at walter31@msu.edu.
