ESL at UW - Green Bay

English as a second language (ESL) courses have been offered at UW-Green Bay since the late 1970’s. During the regular academic year, two separate ESL courses are offered, HUM STUD 220 (Listening and Speaking Across Cultures, 3 credits) and ENG COMP 164 (ESL Composition, 3 credits).  These courses are designed for international or domestStudentsic bilingual students who are completing an academic program at UW-Green Bay and would like to further strengthen their English language skills.  During the beginning of each semester, an ESL placement exam is given, which focuses on listening, reading and writing.   The Summer ESL Institute was offered during the summer of 2007, further strengthening our ESL course offerings during the summer months. It will be offered once again during the summer of 2009.
