The English Language Center is part of Michigan State University, which is located in East Lansing, in the Southern portion of the state.

About the  Western Michigan University

  • One of the top-100 public universities in the United States, Western Michigan University is committed to being learner centered, discovery driven and globally engaged. Founded in 1903, what was once Western Michigan College became Michigan's fourth public university in 1957. Since then, WMU has undergone dramatic growth in size and stature. Today, the University offers more than 240 academic programs to students pursuing degrees through the doctoral level. More than 20 percent of its 25,000 students are enrolled in graduate course work, studying in disciplines ranging from atomic physics and graph theory to medieval literature and blind rehabilitation. Of 101 graduate offerings available, 30 lead to a doctoral degree. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching has classified WMU as one of only 139 public institutions it considers research universities. In addition, U.S. News & World Report has recognized it as one of the nation’s best universities for the past 21 years, and for the past 14 years, has listed it among the top-100 public universities in the United States.

  • Kalamazoo is one of the 25 best cities in the country for young college graduates, according to a 2011 national study that looked at relative affordability, housing and employment opportunities, and size of the age 22-24 population. That was one more acknowledgement of one of WMU's greatest assets—Kalamazoo and West Michigan. Kalamazoo is famous for a lot of things. It's a major international pharmaceutical and life sciences center; it's the original home of the Upjohn Co., Stryker Corp, Gibson Guitars, Checker Motors and Bell's Brewery, among many others; the Kalamazoo Gazette is the second oldest newspaper in Michigan; and a century ago, Kalamazoo was so famous for one crop, it was known throughout the country as the Celery City. Abraham Lincoln spoke in the village of Kalamazoo in 1856, four years before he was elected president, his only public address in Michigan. Kalamazoo is a center of higher education. In addition to WMU, it is home to Kalamazoo College and Kalamazoo Valley Community College. The three institutions collaborate on a variety of fronts and add significantly to the cultural and educational opportunities and economic development of the region.

這次參家密集英語課程後,關於西密西根大學的環境部分特別想跟大家分享一下!!!
環境:人口約22萬左右的小鎮,華人人口相對美國其他地區低很多!若下定決心想學英文此地是很好的選擇!夏天早晚溫差大可攜一件長袖薄外套。
交通:交通方面較為不便,附近沒有地鐵站僅有火車站及公車或taxi!公車禮拜日停駛。如果需要下廚或添購用品須儘早。在這裡沒有車其實蠻不方便的,遊學前建議可以先上FB與西密西根台灣同學會的人連絡,大家會熱情告訴你該注意的地方及遊覽校園(當然也有免費司機載你購物)。
學校:綠樹環繞設施完善,圖書館除特定價日外都會開放!語校的老師都十分熱情教學也相當活潑!會依不同級別指導如何獨立撰寫paper非常受用。
宿舍:兩人一間房,兩房共用一間衛浴!宿舍空間寬敞!附有獨立單人床,書桌及衣櫃!可無線上網,須先下載學校的防毒軟體,並自備網路線!宿舍地下室有洗衣機與烘衣機。
課外活動:學校每個禮拜會有1~2次不等的課外活動,若想獨自遊覽可以去市中心(公車終點站即是)或搭火車前往芝加哥。
