PhD-Course: Construction and Interpretation of Text and Knowledge in
Specialised Discourse

The main aim of this 3-day PhD-course (the first of a series of courses to
be held in the next two years on lexicography, translation and knowledge
communication) is to show how specific aspects of text in their functional
context may be dealt with linguistically. In the course, we intend to give
an impression of the advantages of focusing upon different aspects when
describing specialised texts in their functional context and the generation
of practical rules for the construction and interpretation of such texts
and knowledge.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can 
receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit 
organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against 
your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more 
information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift 
you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting your human 
resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns 
to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the 
value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment 
to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
