Abstract

In the contemporary globalized world, English has become the primary language of science, technology, and international communication. As a result, technical university students are required to develop not only general language proficiency but also the ability to understand and translate specialized technical texts. This article examines the role of Translation Studies in English language teaching at technical universities. It highlights the contribution of translation activities to the development of technical terminology competence, reading comprehension, writing skills, and analytical thinking. The paper also discusses the challenges students face in technical translation, including terminological difficulties and grammatical differences between languages. The study emphasizes that translation serves as an effective pedagogical tool that bridges language learning and professional education, preparing future engineers and technical specialists for successful participation in international professional environments.
