Contribution of teaching unit to learning outcomes assigned to programme 
This unit contributes to the acquisition and development of the following learning outcomes, as assigned to the Master's degree in translation: 
  • acquire, develop and use thematic and domain-specific knowledge relevant to translation needs (mastering systems of concepts, methods of reasoning, presentation standards, terminology and phraseology, specialised sources etc.) (4 – Translation); 
  • use the most relevant IT applications, including the full range of office software, and adapt rapidly to new tools and IT resources having critically assessed their relevance and the impact of change on their work practices (15 – Technology); 
  • recognise the importance and value of translation and language data, demonstrating data literacy (19 – Technology); 
  • apply other tools in support of language and translation technology, such as workflow management tools (20 – Technology). 
Specific learning outcomes on completion of teaching unit 
On completing this unit the student is able to: 
  • demonstrate knowledge related to specialised texts and the use of computational tools for their analysis; 
  • exemplify and use computational tools that can perform different types of textual analysis; 
  • discuss different options for analysing a specialised text; 
  • conceptualise and conduct an analysis of specialised texts using computational tools;
