Abstract: This paper examines the level of preparedness among students studying an undergraduate programme in an Indian university to handle the academic demands of a specialist course. The participants are a group of 80 students studying engineering in IT in an Indian university and 8 discipline experts teaching in the same university. The data reveals the challenges that the learners face as far as their literacy in IT is concerned and foregrounds the need to teach EAP from a disciplinary literacy perspective.
