Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The term ‘Specialized Discourse’ describes specialist, community-based uses of language, including academic, professional, technical and occupational domains of knowledge and practice. This course aims to introduce students to the range and variety of uses in which English serves as a language of specialized discourse and communication.
Students
• become familiar with theoretical and methodological foundations of discourse analysis, genre analysis and register analysis
• gain hands-on experience in analysing various text types and genres with a view to developing teaching materials
• develop the research and analytical skills necessary for the study of language in specialist domains of use

This course combines hands-on work with language data, reading-based group work and discussion and individual research work leading to a small-group presentation and a written project report. Students who choose to write their bachelor paper will produce a research paper based on their project work on an area of specialized discourse.
