| Abstract | ||||
| This study aims to identify the attitudes toward English among Dual Studies students in Palestine Polytechnic University (PPU). It relies on a questionnaire composed of 23 items distributed to 38 male and 92 female students in three departments in the collage of Dual Studies: Business Technology, Financial Technology and Renewable Energy Engineering. These students are in different study levels or years and have different backgrounds related to High School Streams. This study was conducted during the first semester of the academic year 2024-2025. The study implements different statistical procedures which fit the collected data. The results of the study revealed that most of the Dual Studies students in the PPU have positive attitudes towards English. There are no significant differences in attitudes toward English among students due to gender, faculty or high school stream. However, there is a significant difference in attitudes towards English due to years of study. Students across most groups consistently demonstrated positive attitudes toward learning English. The study recommends the following: Universities should offer sufficient English communication courses to help students refine their language skills and meet professional needs. Second, teachers should implement strategies that prepare dual studies students for the challenges of a competitive job market. | ||||
