From the study, it was found that in this institution English is considered as an English for Specific Purposes(ESP), though regarded as a minor subject, yet itsexistence is considered as important. This perception is acceptable by all stakeholder (the institution, the lecturer and the students).Keywords: English, Higher Education of Computer Science, English for Specific Purposes
