Academic English Studies (AES)
at Lewis & Clark
English Language Courses in Oregon, USA

The Academic English Studies (AES) program offers full-time (18-20 hours per week) instruction for low-intermediate through advanced English language students. Up to 24 undergraduate elective credits may be applied toward a Bachelor of Arts degree at Lewis & Clark. English as a Second Language (ESL) classes closely approximate undergraduate classes in teaching style, content, and expectations. The curriculum is designed to assist students in the development of essential language skills, appropriate learning strategies, and the cross-cultural awareness and sensitivities considered necessary for successful completion of their undergraduate or graduate studies. As part of the AES program, students improve their reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills in AES classes, and they observe or audit undergraduate classes at the same time. Advanced students might also take one or two undergraduate courses for credit along with their AES classes.

The AES program offers courses during both semesters of the academic year; an intensive summer session is also scheduled.

The Lewis & Clark campus is located approximately six miles (9.66 km) from downtown Portland, Oregon, in a safe residential area.  Lewis & Clark is a private nationally regarded liberal arts institution of higher education. It is known for it's global outlook, close student-faculty relationship, and service to the community; it is proud of it's distinguished teachers, performers, researchers and alumni.
