Language services represent a rapidly growing and evolving industry which is key in today’s multilingual and interconnected world. Languages available: English, plus one or two from Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. This course combines training in conference interpreting and translation with relevant aspects of computer science and will equip you with the specialist skills you need in order to get a head start in this exciting industry. You'll become a skilled professional linguist who's comfortable working with a range of topics, who understands different workflows and modalities, and who is capable of adapting to remote, hybrid and in-person learning and work environments. You'll work to find solutions to address various challenges, be they linguistic, cultural or technological. Our technology modules will introduce you to the theory and functional principles behind the latest technologies being used and developed in the language services industry (such as AI). This technology-focused approach is also reflected across our translation and interpreting modules. We incorporate the latest software and hardware and provide opportunities for you to familiarise yourself with diverse settings and text genres. Our unique combination of training will enable you to thrive in an industry that requires versatility, a curious mind and the ability to learn quickly and effectively. We also offer an MA in Translation and Applied Technologies, if you'd prefer to focus solely on translation studies.
