      abstract = {This book focuses on Japanese science, technology,  engineering and mathematics (STEM) students and their  experiences of learning English. Students majoring in STEM  face unique circumstances regarding their English language  education. Despite the global use of English in these  fields, the authors argue that Japanese STEM students fail  to take advantage of coursework, extracurricular materials,  teachers, peers, and other resources to raise their  communicative abilities to a sufficient level for the  workplace. This book offers insights into how STEM students  can learn English more effectively and purposefully. The  chapters provide firsthand perspectives into the  psychologies, educational programs, and future workplace  situations of Japanese STEM students, who are the  innovators, inventors, and researchers of the future. This  book will appeal to applied linguists and language teachers  wherever STEM English is taught.
