Objective is the ability to cope in both a business and academic setting in English. Students will further study business administration and economics contents and build abilities in applying them to structural work for both business and academic settings.

After students gained the ability to structure professional business reports in their first semester (English 1), now this knowledge is used to work also scholarly and academically. They will learn how to apply their insights to creating a (business) topic, objective and research question/s; finding and structuring relevant academic information and quoting appropriately, as well as finally writing an academic paper themselves. Students will present their findings in a business presentation at the end of the semester.
