Abstract
The purpose of the current research is to investigate the English target and learning
needs of petroleum engineering students at Hadramout University of Sciences and
Technology (HUST), Yemen. Guided by Hutchinson and Waters’s (1987) target and
learning needs framework, students’ English language and communication skills needs
are identified in terms of necessities, lacks and wants. For the learners’ English learning
needs, the study includes their motivation and attitudes towards learning the English
language, their learning styles preferences (LSPs), teaching styles, teaching methods
and techniques and preferences of the English language course. To synthesise the
conceptual framework, methods, approaches, ways and/or ideas are adopted from a
number of theories, models and studies, which are related to the issues of interest in the
current needs analysis (NA) study.
