important role in society nowadays due to the fact that this language has been served as a means of communication among people working in different professional fields That is the reason why English has been incorporated as a compulsory subject in almost every vocational school, college and university in Viet Nam However, the teaching and learning of English in these situations are still facing many problems One of the reasons for this is the lack of an effective syllabus or the inappropriateness of teaching and learning materials, especially in ESP (English for specific purposes) Therefore, this study aims to examine the problems of teaching and learning English at the Pharmaceutical Department, Ben Tre Medical College, concerning the use of the present syllabus and their influence on students’ motivation all in an effort to find out solutions for the designing of a better syllabus that is effective and motivating to students of the department As an effort to identify the situation, a survey was carried out to find out teachers’ and students’ attitudes towards the current syllabus as well as their suggestions for a better change in the language program for these students The participants involved in the study and interviews were the teachers in charge of the course, some specializedsubject teachers, the recruiters, the current pharmaceutical students and the graduates The findings reveal that the current syllabus is ineffective due to the fact that this syllabus does not meet students’ needs as well as the expectations of the department and the society The study also proposes a new syllabus and this syllabus has been put into experimental teaching and proved to be better and more effective than the current one Based on the findings, the suggestions for better practice were made It is hoped that the result of the study as well as the newly designed syllabus will allow the recommendations that may be helpful to teachers and students in teaching and learning English at the pharmaceutical department at Ben Tre Medical College in particular and in vocational colleges of Medicine and Health in general iv TABLES OF CONTENTS Content Page
