EAP has changed over the last 30 years as new insights into academic discourse have informed the content of courses across the Anglophone world. However, this paper will argue that the biggest drivers of change in coming decades will be changes to education globally that will see new generations of students commencing their EAP studies from a higher initial level of English competence, and also studying in different locations and in different institutions. Globalisation is causing an increasing number of countries to rethink their English language education policies, and this will change the profile of students exiting secondary education in those countries. This combined with the emergence of a variety of new institutions offering higher education in English will reshape the global EAP landscapes and provide new challenges and opportunities for the EAP profession. This paper explores these changes and predicts how they will shape EAP in the future.
