Keelte ja kommunikatsiooni keskus alustas uue nime all tegevust 1. jaanuaril 2017 TTÜ Majandusteaduskonna dekanaadi koosseisus. Keskuse eelkäijaks oli TTÜ keeltekeskus, mis loodi 1. juulil 1992.a. võõrkeelte lektoraadi ja eesti keele lektoraadi liitmisel. Keelte ja kommunikatsiooni keskuse eesmärgiks on
- Tallinna Tehnikaülikooli keeleõppe korraldamine;
- keeleõppe ning keelealane arendus- ja teadustegevus;
- teadmusteenuste, sh täiendõppeteenuste osutamine. The goal of instruction at the Centre for Language and Communication of TalTech is to grant learners (students, staff and members of the public) sufficient linguistic and communicative proficiency, both in spoken and written modes, that would enable them to follow developments in their professional field and operate effectively in an international environment. The Language Centre of Tallinn University of Technology was founded on 1 July 1992 by merging the Departments of Foreign Languages and the Estonian Language. Starting from 1 January 2017 it is called Centre for Language and Communication and is an administrative unit of the School of Business and Governance. The Centre for Language and Communication is responsible for language studies at TalTech, including further training of the university staff, for development and research activities in the fields of language and language learning and for providing language-related services. The Centre for Language and Communication has attempted to respond to the changes in educational and professional contexts, and the needs for both local and international students and academics to enhance their proficiency of foreign languages to meet those needs.
