Our Story
Founded in 1967, the University and College Intensive English Programs (UCIEP) emerged from a collaboration of directors from 13 Intensive English Programs. This organization was established to address challenges and provide leadership in the field of English language education. Over the years, UCIEP has remained dedicated to setting high standards for intensive English programs and advocating for the needs of English language learners. In 2023, the bylaws were updated to broaden the scope of UCIEP, embracing a more inclusive approach to university and college-governed English language programs.
