Course overview This course is for anyone looking to begin a career as a translator or enhance their existing career in the sector. You'll join our global community of translators and develop industry-specific skills. Prepare for a career as a professional translator. Our industry-focussed course gives you the translation and project management skills to stand out in the sector. Course highlights At Birmingham, we work closely with translation agencies and freelancers to prepare you for professional employment in the translator industry. You can take a Professional Development module where you'll develop the skills you need to excel as a professional translator. We have strong links with industry and organise talks from professionals, as well as advertising mentoring and internship opportunities. You'll get to build your networks from day one.
The language you intend to translate into needs to be your mother tongue language or a language you use regularly. If you want to translate into a language that you use regularly, but isn't your mother tongue, you may need to provide evidence of your language proficiency. We typically expect you have an Honours degree level at a 2:1 in the language(s) you intend to translate from. If you don't hold a degree in your ‘second language, you may need to provide other evidence of proficiency. This needs to be equivalent to a minimum of level C1 on the Common European Framework for Languages. If you don't hold a languages or humanities-related Honours degree, you may need to provide evidence of relevant work experience.
