ELI will play a central role in the agreement
A new agreement between the University of Delaware and Japan’s Saitama University, signed Jan. 27 at UD, is designed to expand the cultural horizons and foreign language capabilities of students at both institutions.
Under the agreement, UD’s prestigious English Language Institute (ELI) will provide short-term language immersion programs for Saitama students over the next five years. Also offered will be a bridge program, whereby Saitama students can study English as a Second Language (ESL) part time at the ELI, while concurrently taking one to two UD credit courses through the Division of Professional and Continuing Studies.
