The course blends theory and practice to emphasise  the analysis of the English language as it is used in workplace settings.  The course involves the team-based execution of a professional communication project, including the production of one or more texts, such as handbooks, social media campaigns, market research reports, websites, brochures, etc. This practical experience is analysed from the perspective of relevant theories of communication, culture, or linguistics. The project is completed  in collaboration with a host organisation, which provides an authentic workplace experience.
