Results revealed that 1) students think English-medium instruction should be adopted since it is fundamental to their career 2) both students and lecturers feel the need to resort to L1 during the lessons despite the language policy of English-only 3) although students believe that the medium should be English, they feel that using Turkish in EMI context can contribute to the learning of the subject matter.
