Classifications of ESP
Strevens (1977) Suggests a further division of occupational and academic English courses according to when they take place.
Hutchinson and Waters (1987) See ESP as a branch of English as a second/foreign language, which are the main strands of ELT.
Robinson (1991) considers ESP as an area of ELT divided into EAP and EOP. Cutting across these is EST, which can refer to the English needed for both study and work purposes.
Dudley-Evans and St John (1998) classify ESP by professional area. EAP covers the areas of Science and Technology (EST, the main branch), Medicine
and Health Sciences (EMP), Law and Administration (ELP), and Business and Economics.
