Course content

The growing complexity of international communication requires professionals with skills in both translation and interpreting. This course is one of the few in the UK to give you the expertise needed to perform both tasks professionally.

Our programme has a strong practical component to suit the needs of the translation and interpreting market today. We support ‘virtual internships’, which enable you to collaborate with language service providers and build a professional engagement portfolio for future employers.

The Centre for Translation Studies (CTS) is currently developing an ambitious new research programme on the responsible integration of human and automated approaches to translation and interpreting, which will inform our teaching and future-proof your career in this evolving industry.
