The Academic Communication Certificate (ACC) is designed for English learners who want to improve their English skills to enter Canadian university or college programs. Through intensive instruction of English for Academic Purposes (EAP), students will learn essential skills for an academic setting and acquire critical knowledge for a successful transition to Canadian university culture.
ACC students who apply to an applicable UCalgary undergraduate and graduate degree program, and meet the competitive admission requirements are eligible for conditional admission.
The condition of admission for undergraduate programs will be met once a student successfully completes EAP 220, 225, 230, 235 with a minimum grade of B+ and EAP 249 with a CR by August 1 in the year of application.*
The condition of admission for graduate programs will be met once a student successfully completes EAP 220, 225, 230, 235 with a minimum grade of B+ and EAP 249 with a CR by August 1, or as designated by the department. Some graduate programs require a minimum grade of A- in some ACC courses. Please contact the graduate program directly to confirm admission requirements.
Students who have completed some ACC courses may be able to take credit courses in Open Studies concurrently with their remaining ACC courses.

Experience academic learning at one of Canada's top five research institutions. The Calgary International Summer Program is a 4-week program for international students interested in visiting Canada during the summer session.
There are two program formats to choose from:
1. ESL + One Academic Course
2. Two Academic Courses
Academic courses are taught by University of Calgary faculties, and English training courses are taught by English language specialists from University of Calgary Continuing Education.
In these intensive programs, students will improve their English language skills, gain international academic experience, learn Canadian culture first-hand, and visit top destinations in and around Calgary.
Courses are graded and include a certificate of participation.
Courses Available
1. Engineering
- Introduction to Energy and the Environment
History of energy technologies; energetics of natural systems and agriculture; formation, extraction and transformations of fossil fuels, renewables such as biomass, solar and wind; and the electricity system, environmental impacts of energy systems, and technical options for transforming energy systems to reduce environmental impacts.
- Project Engineering
The project lifecycle. Project planning, scheduling, and control. Resource considerations. Cost estimating, planning, and performance. Project risk. Project personnel and organizational structures.
- Pipeline Design
Function and types of pipeline systems; gathering, transmission, distribution. Design parameters and procedures: supply and demand considerations; design life; capacity planning; system planning and facilities. Hydraulic design. Mechanical design. Geotechnical design.
- Pipeline Economics
Macroeconomics of system supply and demand, open season procedures, optimized sizing, J curves; CAPEX, OPEX, taxation, leasing, depreciation and capital cost allowance, developing revenue requirement, cost of service. Salvage and end of life cost. For utilities Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC).
- Fundamentals of GPS
Inertial sensors and their application in inertial navigation, existing inertial systems, new developments in strapdown technology. Practical aspects of inertial positioning definition of an operational inertial frame, inertial error models. Effect of inertial sensor errors on the derived navigation parameters, performance characteristics of inertial sensors, calibration of inertial sensors. Mechanization equations in different co-ordinate frames, step by step computation of the navigation parameters from the inertial sensor data introduction to Kalman filtering for optimal error estimation, modelling INS errors by linear state equations, practical issues for the implementation of update measurements (ZUPT, CUPT, Integrated systems), current research activities.
