The purpose of this study is to investigate EFL college students’ perceptions of learning subject areas through English in an attempt to measure the perceptions of their experiences of CBI. The participants in this study were 130 college students who enrolled in the subject areas via English mediated instruction in a university in Korea. Data were collected through a questionnaire and a semi-structured interview. The findings showed that students felt higher interest and strong motivation for acquiring content knowledge and English in CBI and paid more attention to the lesson. Furthermore, they showed a very positive response about the necessity of CBI. With regard to the beneficial effects of CBI for students, this study showed that students highly evaluated CBI in light of the contribution to lower levels of anxiety and the enhancement of motivation of learning English, convincing the value of CBI in the content and language learning process and the desire of taking more CBI courses in the future. However, the students, especially at low-level, expressed a great deal of anxiety due to the difficulty in understanding and also due to worrying about their own proficiency levels in comparison to others having higher English proficiency. Based on the findings, the present study offers some implications for effective CBI courses and also future studies.
