The UCT tailors to your needs

You can contact the UCT as well if you have a customized project in mind. Throughout the years, we have built a thorough and comprehensive expertise to guide you wherever you need it.  

Could you use some help writing a text? Would you like to have your text proofread or translated? We offer translations and proofreading from and into English to UGent services. Would you like to submit a text to the UCT? We are happy to consider your text to make an initial analysis of the linguistic quality, the level of technical difficulty and the length. On the basis of these criteria, we determine whether we can proofread your text. Within three working days, we will communicate a non-binding quote, in which the fee and the period of delivery are specified. Are you curious about the work and the reaction of colleagues who have turned to this service of the UCT? You can have a look at some examples and personal experiences here.

Do you need guidance in the context of a project application or would you like to organize a language training that tailors to the needs of the staff members of your company or organization? We can offer coaching as well as customized language courses. Over the years, we have already collaborated on several projects such as coaching candidates for FWO interviews, guiding inaugural lectures given by new members of the professorial staff, organizing a reader-oriented writing course (English/Dutch) for UGent services, etc.

Would you like to collaborate with the UCT in the context of a customized project? Contact us via uct@ugent.be (contact person: Marijke Lenaerts). We will get in touch with you to discuss the options. We are already looking forward to shape your customized project together!
