The importance of the English language in scientific research, international business and diplomacy, and the growth in international student and faculty mobility, has led many universities to develop English-taught programs. At the same time, the use of English-language has posed challenges for students and faculty, and the dominance of the English language is seen to favour certain countries and research disciplines over others. What we can be sure of though, is that teaching in English is debatable!
