We particularly welcome candidates who have a degree in Translation or Modern Languages, but entry to the programme is open to all applicants with a good degree in Linguistics, Economics, Law, Film, Media, Cultural Studies, Communication Studies and other relevant areas. We will also consider candidates without a relevant degree who have an appropriate professional qualification or with proven professional expertise in the field of translation. Acceptance of candidates in this category may be subject to an interview by the Programme Convener.
You should usually hold a second-class honours degree (certain programmes may require a 2:1) from a recognised British or overseas university. Advice on recognition can be obtained from the Admissions Office. Non-graduates with appropriate professional qualifications will be considered on an individual basis by Programme Conveners, contact details can be found on the individual programme page. Applicants will be expected to apply and register for the full master's award. Those with a third-class honours degree are encouraged to complete an application as we will consider an applicant's wider circumstances in making a decision on an application.
