【Abstract】
This lecture explores the significance and impact of EMI (English-Medium Instruction) in Taiwan’s higher education. With universities placing increasing emphasis on internationalization, English has emerged as a key medium for global engagement, shaping not only curriculum design but also the practices of teaching, learning, and campus life. The discussion will highlight the diverse roles English plays in academic settings, draw on research to present Taiwanese faculty and students’ attitudes, beliefs, and experiences with EMI, and consider the challenges and opportunities it brings to the local educational landscape. Ultimately, it will address a core question: “What does EMI represent in the context of Taiwan?”
