The paper proposes a model for a prospective approach to the study of the English language for engineering students. This model is influenced and shaped by the consideration of the necessity of educating engineering students for the realities of Industry 4.0. Given the dramatically changing paradigm of language teaching and language teaching aims, a critical selection on the part of the teacher is indispensable when it comes to choosing the most adequate teaching resources. The paper includes theoretical and practical suggestions to approach the ESP (English for Specific Purposes) seminar, which can lead to the improvement and fine-tuning of students’ skills and attitudes in view of Industry 4.0 realities.
