You will have opportunities to work with academic staff, professional translators and employers. You can work between any language pairing on a programme designed to comply with the European Master’s in Translation guidelines produced by the European Commission’s Directorate General for Translation. Our curriculum is designed to offer training in translation that is normally applicable to any source and target-language pairing. You will also have the opportunity to carry out work placements, honing your practical skills and gaining valuable experience. The programme is aimed at students wishing to pursue a career as professional translators in both public and private sectors as well as in international institutions (such as the European Community and the United Nations) or those who are interested in translation as a basis to pursue a PhD in such disciplines as translation studies, comparative literature, cultural studies or history.

You will be required to have a relevant four year Bakalavr bachelor's degree from a recognised institution, with grades of approximately 80% or above to be considered for our postgraduate taught courses. If your bachelor's degree is marked out of a GPA of 5.0, you will be required to have an average of at least 4.0.
