USAC, in partnership with UFSC, promoted on 7, 8 and 9 May 2018 the English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) Course. The course was addressed to UFSC’s faculty and lectured by visiting Professor Sarah Blithe, from the University of Nevada, U.S.

The course focused on introducing EMI and instructing its participants on how to lecture courses from all areas of expertise in English as a way to spread the use of English language in environments where English is not the first language of the participants. The opportunity was part of UFSC’s strategy to disseminate the university’s language policies.
