The Intensive English Program provides English courses to learners with diverse goals and needs. These English courses provide a chance for life-changing cross-cultural encounters leading to sustained intercultural learning.

The program consists of 20 hours per week of classroom instruction in the basic language skills: listening, speaking, reading, writing and grammar. Video and audio equipment help students improve pronunciation and listening comprehension. An IEP computer lab is available on campus for student use.

There are three full-time levels in the IEP: Basic (Level 1), Intermediate (Level 11) and Advanced (Level 111). Students take a placement test to determine their level. Students who complete Levels II and III and subsequently enroll at EMU for an undergraduate degree may receive 15 semester hours of credit.
