The Intensive English Language Program (IELP) is designed for students who wish to use more fluent English in their academic professional lives. Classes are communicative, integrating all language skills, and are taught at the beginning, intermediate and advanced levels.
In addition to a full-time intensive program, elective classes are offered one day per week and include TOEFL preparation, accent reduction, computer instruction, idiomatic English, and technical writing.

Esl 003 Oral Communication for International Students of Business

Esl 004 Oral Communication for International Teaching/Research/Graduate Assistants

These classes are intended for University at Albany matriculated undergraduate and graduate international students. Off-campus students may also participate if their spoken English is at least at an intermediate level. The offering of these courses is contingent upon sufficient enrollment. All courses are non-credit, but offer 3-hour load equivalency for F-1 status.
The IELP runs year round, concurrent with the University�s fall and spring semesters, and there is an 8-week summer session. Cultural activities expand each student�s ability to use English in a variety of situations.
