The Evolution of Technical Jargons in Communicative English Among Bachelor of Engineering and Bachelor of Technology Students

Abstract

The evolution of technical terms in communicative English among Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) and Bachelor of Technology (B. Tech) students reflects the rapid advancements and dynamic nature of engineering and technology fields. Over recent decades, the lexicon of engineering students has expanded significantly, incorporating new terminologies that align with emerging technologies, innovative methodologies, and cutting-edge research. This study explores the progression of these technical terms, highlighting the shift from foundational concepts to contemporary innovations that are now integral to the academic and professional discourse of engineering students. The findings underscore the importance of continual linguistic adaptation in technical education to keep pace with technological evolution, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of communication among future engineers. This study also reveals that students who adeptly incorporate new technical vocabulary into their communication are better equipped to engage with current research, collaborate on innovative projects, and contribute meaningfully to their fields. The results emphasize the necessity of integrating ongoing updates to technical language into engineering curricula to ensure that graduates are proficient in the latest industry standards and terminologies.
