English for Academic Purposes (EAP), commonly known as Academic English, entails training students, usually in a higher education setting, to use language appropriately for study and career discipline. On completing their chosen course, learners can express fluently in Academic English.

​

An EAP program focuses instruction on skills required to perform in an English-speaking academic context across core subject areas generally encountered in a university setting. Programs may be divided into pre-sessional courses and courses taken alongside students' other subjects. In the former case, EAP courses may be intended to raise students' general English levels so that they can enter university.
