文学硕士专业翻译

专业翻译文学硕士向母语为英语和非母语的人开放
Our Specialised Translation MA prepares you for a career in the translation market. The course is open to both native and non-native speakers of English who also speak any of the following languages: Chinese, French, German, Italian, or Spanish. At the heart of the MA are our weekly practical translation classes between English and one of these languages. Building on your existing language skills, you'll learn how to research specialised subjects to produce, with and without the use of translation memory software tools, commercially viable translations of a broad range of specialised texts, applying insights drawn from linguistics and translation theory as well as from professional practice.<br><br>We emphasise practical training in translation, developing your skills to a high level and learning about the professional environment. Your core Specialised Translation modules will involve both direct and inverse translation training between English and Chinese, French, German, Italian, or Spanish. The majority of your translation assessments, including the final translation exam, will, however, be conducted into your mother tongue only. You'll translate texts in a wide variety of specialised topics, types, and genres (together with their respective specialist vocabularies and discursive contexts), developing the practical translation skills and techniques that will provide a solid foundation for a career as a professional translator. You'll also acquire a wide range of additional skills, including career building and professional development skills, through the remaining core and option modules.
