Is it really necessary to be very good at English if your main field is technology or science? If you work in a company or institution in your home country with no contact with other countries understanding written English can be enough, but how likely is it that you have a job like that? This book is intended to increase your technical vocabulary and help you avoid some of the traps that are easy to fall into, but hard to discover on your own. The first part of the book, Professionalism, deals with generic skills like writing and oral presentations. The next main part, English for Technology and Science, presents key vocabulary within different fields, focusing on words that are easily mixed up. The book's emphasis is on reading comprehension, vocabulary and pronunciation. The grammar exercises concentrate on phrases that advanced students often get wrong, and which can lead to misunderstandings. All texts, comments and exercises are in English, and the book can be used by learners with any native language. However, wordlists with Swedish translations are included as a service to Swedish-speaking readers. The book is suitable for learners at advanced level, CEFR levels B2 to C2, both at universities and in industries.
