English Medium Instruction in Multilingual and Multicultural Universities: Academics’ Voices from the Northern European Context

Research output: Book/ReportBookpeer-review

English Medium Instruction in Multilingual and Multicultural Universities analyses the issues related to EMI at both a local and international level and provides a broad perspective on this topic. Drawing on field studies from a Northern European context and based primarily on research carried out at the University of Copenhagen, this book:
• introduces a global topical issue that pushes the agenda for higher educational research;
• identifies the issues and challenges involved in EMI in relation to central linguistic, pedagogical, sociolinguistic and socio-cultural concepts;
• captures university lecturers’ experiences in the midst of curricular change and presents reflections on ways to professionally navigate in English to meet the demands of the multilingual and multicultural classroom.

English Medium Instruction in Multilingual and Multicultural Universities is key reading for university management and educational planners, researchers, pre- and in-service teachers, and advanced students with an interest in EMI and the multilingual, multicultural university setting.
