Abstract

English for Specific Purpose is a learning program specially designed to meet students’ needs in a particular area. One such area is English for pharmacy, which is taught at the pharmacy academy. However, not many pieces of research are devoted to investigating the learners’ needs in pharmacy. This research was aimed to evaluate the English for Specific Course conducted by exploring students’ perceptions during the 1st half-semester, 2019/2020 academic year. A survey method was accomplished by distributing questionnaires and interviewing 160 participants in one of Tasikmalaya’s public university. One hundred thirty-six submitted the online questionnaires in the google form. The result was transcribed and analyzed to get research findings. It covered the evaluation of learning objectives, content, and the learning process. From those components, students considered that learning objectives had met their hopes and needs, the course contents had given them much knowledge of English, and the learning process had run effectively and efficiently. Therefore for handling significantly few negative responses, the lecturer should consider them for future improvement.
