Course info
Topics has been chosen for students of
geotechnical engineering at intermediate or upper- intermediate level of
English who seek to improve their language skills. Its primary goal is to
present technical language in authentic texts selected from a variety of
sources. These topics can be divided broadly into two parts: the first one
includes texts which deal with geotechnical issues and can be used at any stage
of the language courses, while the other consists of specialized texts intended
for students who have already chosen their specializations. Each unit of these
courses consists of three parts : pre-reading activities, reading comprehension
and vocabulary section. Each part provides students with ample practice through
numerous exercises which can be used selectively or adapted to the needs of
particular groups of students. These topics will be both stimulating and
enjoyable for students, and a useful companion to introducing students into the
realm of technical language.
