Anna Montesinos López, Llum Bracho Lapiedra
The situation of the Catalan language in higher education is a significantindicator of its linguistic use in the academic world as well as the students‘ linguisticformation and the graduate students‘ specific communication skills in Catalan. Regard-less of what is pointed out in the Law of use of the Valencian language and the Euro-pean Charter for Regional or Minority Languages (point 879), the Universitat Politèc-nica de València’s linguistic policy regarding the teaching in Valencian and theteaching of Valencian for specific purposes has suffered a drastic reduction comparedto previous years; thus it can be asserted that such a language policy is againstwhat is established normatively by a higher stage of proceeding which has outstand-ing consequences concerning the standardisation of Valencian in higher education.
