The Technical Matrix is a textbook for
engineering students. It features a unique
combination of core skills suitable for all types
of engineers and separate strands for the major
disciplines of civil engineering/architecture,
mechanical engineering, electrical engineering,
computer & network engineering, and chemical
and material engineering.
In the core skills sections, the students
learn important common language and engage in
projects to be able to deal with their field in
English such as preparing a job application,
reading scientific papers, and writing a
scientific paper and making presentions.
In the specialized strands, students get
practice reading authentic up-to-date information
from their own fields in the form of natural email
exchanges, reading and conversations. Each unit
features vocabulary tasks to internalize the
vocabulary of their own discipline, comprehension
tasks to help them understand the texts, and
language tasks to ensure that they can use the
language in their own writing and conversation.
