PIM: The role of EAP in English Medium and Transnational Education
University of Sheffield
21st March 2026
The University of Sheffield invites you to a hybrid Professional Issues Meeting (day conference) on 21st March 2026 on the role of EAP in English Medium and Transnational Education. The last EMI focussed PIM was at the University of Southampton in 2016 and over that last decade, there has been a continuing increase in global education, with subjects being taught in English overseas in HE institutions, online or in blended contexts. There are growing numbers of TNE arrangements with UK institutions where programmes are split between providers, locations and curriculums. In most cases EAP will form part of the student journey, whether pre-or in-sessionally, and whether explicitly or implicitly. The aim of the PIM is to look at the roles and opportunities the EAP sector and practitioners have in these developing areas.
