Abstract

The article deals with typical mistakes made by engineering students translating technical texts. The study was performed within the framework of the “Foreign language” course for students of Oil and Gas Business faculty. The analysis was provided for the texts translated by the engineering students in oil and gas industry. The study covered 40 students (I-II courses) at the Branch of IUT in Surgut. The author focuses on the main mistakes: translation difficulties caused by the structural features of the English sentence; difficulties of translation due to the characteristics of the part of speech; lexical difficulties and describes every type of mistakes in students’ translations. This study is considered to be relevant as its outcomes can be applied during developing and planning the course "Foreign Language" for engineering students.
