This program will introduce students to the important field of translation and allow students to develop and ultimately to demonstrate competency in essential translation skills. The sequence of courses will also provide students with an understanding of the skills needed to become professionally certified translators and/or to work as salaried or freelance translators. Students will complete translation projects and will compile a professional portfolio by the end of the certificate program.<br>This certificate is a timely response to job trends. With our world becoming increasingly connected and our nation becoming increasingly multilingual, the need for qualified translators is growing. The US Department of Labor reports that the employment of interpreters and translators is projected to grow 46 percent from 2012 to 2022, much faster than the average for all other occupations. The highest salaries in this field go to those in the intelligence community and government, but interpreters and translators are also in high demand in legal, medical, technical, scientific, business, education, law enforcement and social services fields.
