Harvey, Julia; Owen, David; Palumbo, Giuseppe
Language Learning in Higher Education, v7 n2 p451-459 Oct 2017
The Translation Focus Group (TFG) within CercleS has paid particular attention to issues concerning the production of multilingual institutional texts within the context of European higher education, specifically in order to enhance the quality and effectiveness of terminology and style in ways that ensure the availability of the best possible approved, validated and relevant translations. Building on various initiatives launched by TFG members at local level, the group as a whole is currently designing a project that aims to create an integrated multilingual online platform specifically to assist producers of higher-education institutional texts.
