Description This article presents results from partial research which in its broader scope focuses on doctoral students’ needs analysis. It is the problematics of formulaic language use in vocational published articles which serve as models for the students in the target group and form a referential corpus in the needs analysis. This comparative corpus study pointed to the use of formal and functional types of 4-gram lexical bundles in published articles of expert authors in the two visual art disciplines of photography and product / industrial design. The analysis of lexical bundles has been done with the use of Biber’s (Biber et al., 1999) formal taxonomy, the functional taxonomy was adapted from Hyland (2008a, 2008b). The findings obtained will be used to identify the objective needs in communicative competence in academic writing for doctoral students of the target group.
