研究生医药学术英语需求分析与启示

Needs Analysis on English for Medical and Pharmaceutical Academic Purposes Among Postgraduates and its Implications

目前研究生英语正经历从通用英语向学术英语的转变,许多院校,如广东药科大学(原名广东药学院),开设了医药学术英语课程,受到学生的欢迎。对广东药科大学2015级医药专业研究生所进行的调查显示,他们对医药学术英语有很大的需求,尤其是在专业文献阅读、论文写作和听说方面。根据需求分析和调查结果,提出建议如何开展教学活动。

Postgraduate English has been undergoing the transition from English for General Purposes（ EGP） to English for Academic Purposes（ EAP）, when many universities and colleges, such as Guangdong Pharmaceutical University, have launched EAP programs, gaining popularity from the students. The survey investigating first-year postgraduates in Guangdong Pharmaceutical University has demonstrated that they have great demand for English for Specific Academic Purposes（ESAP）, especially in reading, writing, listening and speaking. Based on the needs analysis and the research results, new perspectives are provided for teaching.
