Resumen

Este artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación cuyo objetivo era determinar el grado de satisfacción que los estudiantes de pregrado en una universidad colombiana tienen con respecto a los cursos de inglés como lengua extranjera que deben tomar como requisito de grado. Se entrevistaron 130 estudiantes de 10 programas y sus respuestas fueron clasificadas y analizadas. Los resultados muestran que los estudiantes están satisfechos con los cursos de lengua extranjera. Sin embargo, hay una serie de aspectos que requieren mayor consideración y mejora. Esos aspectos se analizan en este artículo.
