Study Details: MA 1 year full-time, 2 years part-time
Our Translation and Interpreting MA is open to native and non-native speakers of English, who also speak any of the following languages: Chinese, French, German, Italian, or Spanish. The course builds on your existing language skills and provides extensive professional training aimed at a career in the translation and interpreting markets.
The MA trains you in translation and interpreting between one main language and English. You’ll learn how to research specialised subjects for professional translation and interpreting purposes and hone your skills through extensive practice in your translation and interpreting classes and the Skills Lab modules. The skills and knowledge acquired in your core modules will be complemented by your choice of option module. At the end of the course, you’ll submit either a Translation or Interpreting Project, or a dissertation.
A minimum of a lower second class honours degree (2:2). Linguists without a degree but with sufficient experience in translation and/or interpreting will also be considered. All applicants take an entry test consisting of written and oral components. If you are successful in the entry tests, we will interview you in person or on the telephone to determine if the Translation and Interpreting MA is right for you. The course is open to native speakers of Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.
If your first language is not English, you should have an IELTS 6.5 with 7.0 in speaking.
Applicants are required to submit one academic or professional reference.
