IEI 051 - Basic English: Reading and Writing


IEI 050 and IEI 051, which are taken together, are normally the first in a series of course modules designed to provide non-native English-speaking students with the necessary linguistic foundation to successfully transition to a university-level curriculum.  The focus of the IEI program is primarily on academic language use, and includes the development of listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.  Students are initially placed in courses in the IEI program based on the English language proficiency tests given by the IEI.  In order to transfer to non-conditional status at the University of Maine, the student must complete the full sequence of courses from the initial course in which s/he is placed.
