DEVELOPING FUTURE SPECIALISTS’ COMMUNICATION CULTURE THROUGH ESP IN THE CONTEXT OF ETHNO-CULTURAL RELATIONS

Abstract

This article examines how the communication culture of future specialists can be
developed through English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in the context of ethno-cultural relations.
It discusses the theoretical foundations of communicative culture, intercultural communicative
competence, multilingual interaction and professional communication in higher education.
Particular attention is paid to the integration of ethnocultural values into ESP instruction as a
way of preparing competitive specialists who can work effectively in multicultural professional
environments.
