Abstract:

This volume offers a state-of-the-art view of research into interdisciplinarity, 
language and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) by providing 
an overview of teaching proposals within a university context. 
Interdisciplinarity is understood here as how language expresses the 
discourse and lexis of specialised knowledge in science, technology and the 
professions. Language helps in the creation of these different fields and 
constitutes a strategic tool that, if harnessed correctly, will facilitate 
competitiveness on an international level in order to boost technological, 
scientific, economic and educational growth. Interdisciplinarity, language and 
ICTs should be taken into account to address the real needs of industry, 
commerce and translation in educational institutions and the professions.
The contributions in this volume address themes that are crucial to the 
demands of modern society: intercultural business communications, one of 
the most challenging areas of specialised discourse and commerce; ICT and 
specialised translation, a current issue of the utmost relevance; terminology 
applied to translation; language acquisition in virtual environments; training 
interpreters through ICT; exploring the commercial needs of language 
industries; corpus-based research and ICT applications in specialised 
dictionaries; university e-learning courses; and the state of research on 
specialised languages in Latin America.
