English Language Level Effect in Undergraduate Saudi Students? Engineering Studies Achievements
Abstract: Kingdom of Saudi Arabia currently considered education is one of the most important development goals. The government of Saudi Arabia has allocated huge funds for the education of citizens in the kingdom and abroad under the instructions of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman Al-Saud. The number of universities in Saudi Arabia has grown exponentially from 10 universities in 2000 to 42 universities in 2023 (30 Governmental universities and 12 private universities), as well as 13 separate public and private colleges and 7 military colleges. In the engineering schools of Saudi Arabian universities, English language is one of the most important foundations of engineering studies. Students must know this subject to pursue any field of engineering. Although English language is taught to all Saudi students from preparatory school onwards (sometimes from primary), many lecturers and students acknowledge the weakness of students in this subject, especially in higher education. They further acknowledge the impact of this weakness on the learning of most engineering courses. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that influence the weak English language level of engineering students in Saudi Arabia and their impact on students' studies. Students in College of Engineering - Rabigh Branch - King AbdulAziz University considered as a sample study for this research.
