Abstract

V originále

The article is based on the analysis of the data gathered in a questionnaire survey conducted in the selected groups of the 1st year students who began studying English at School of Business Administration in Karviná in the summer semester of the academic year 2015-2016. The goal of the study is to detect students' needs and requirements concerning their foreign language (FL) study at SBA in Karviná. The data collecting was carried out by distributing questionnaires to respondents and evaluating them. The evaluation of the answers has shown that there exists a discrepancy between students´ awareness of what their command of English should be and what their future employers would expect and their lack of motivation.
