The work aims to analyze one of the texts made by students during his career from the discursive perspective and sociopragmatic aspects. The type object of our work involves theoretical, methodological, technical, linguistic theories of basic and applied sciences aspects, including knowledge, that make it very complex to apprehend and produce.
