Learning objectives

The course aims to develop students' skills in comprehension and production, both written and oral, of scientific texts. Particular attention will be given to the lexical, syntactic, phonological and pragmatic aspects of medical English.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Before starting this course, students should have acquired fairly good competence in English level B1. We strongly suggest further practice of basic skills for those who do not have this prerequisite. Supplementary online material will be provided via website for students who have a poor background in English (lower than B1). In such cases, further tutorial support may be provided on request. Please contact your lecturer for further information.

The course plans to develop the students' competences in relation to grammatical structures, vocabulary and functional language relevant to professional practices.
Specifically, the focus is on the following topics:
1) The field of English for Medical Purposes and its characteristics

3) Anatomy and Physiology of the Human Body and its composition. Main human body systems analysis
4) Infectious Diseases, Prevention and Epidemiology
5) Screening and Medical Imaging
6) Symptoms and Signs, Diagnosis, Pain and Therapies
