Faculty of Engineering • University of Peradeniya
We are the E25 batch — a group of students who came together from different backgrounds, but along the way, became more than just classmates. Through lessons, activities, laughter, challenges, and unforgettable moments, we created memories we will always cherish.

We came from different backgrounds — different schools, different hometowns, different first impressions of each other. But somewhere between the lessons, the group activities, the laughter, and the challenges we worked through together, something changed. We stopped being a room full of strangers and became a batch that shows up for one another.
This page is a small collection of that journey — our smiles, our creativity, our talents, and the special moments we shared together along the way.
Through hands-on group work, interactive speaking, and real-world engineering contexts, we develop practical English mastery.
Mastering impromptu speeches, public presentations, vocal projection, body language, and slide delivery for technical audiences.
Analyzing scholarly articles, reading technical documentation, synthesizing information, and building specialized engineering vocabulary.
Engaging in structured cohort debates, active listening, arguing diverse viewpoints with logical reasoning, and collaborative problem-solving.
Writing formal project reports, essay compositions, technical summaries, professional emails, and refining grammatical accuracy.
Core competencies every engineering student hones throughout the English Foundation Course.
Overcoming hesitation and expressing ideas naturally and spontaneously in English.
Expanding academic lexicon and technical terminology for engineering discourse.
Comprehending global accents, following lectures, and capturing key discussion points.
Structuring concise lab reports, research papers, and professional communications.
Refining word stress, phonetic clarity, and natural rhythm in spoken conversations.
Speaking comfortably in front of microphones, cameras, and large audiences.
Creating compelling slide decks, pacing speech, and keeping listeners engaged.
Working across group activities, sharing tasks, and giving peer feedback.
Analyzing complex arguments, questioning assumptions, and defending conclusions.
To use English confidently in our studies, our future careers, and our everyday communication.
The Foundation Course has given us more than just English knowledge. It has helped us build confidence, make new friendships, work as a team, and enjoy our university life together.
