Translation and Interpreting with Modern Languages
University of East Anglia UEA
Translation and Interpreting with Modern Languages
Course Summary
**Overview**
Bring countries and cultures together as you perfect two languages (choosing from French, Spanish and Japanese) while developing professional expertise in translation and interpreting.
You’ll study your chosen languages to degree level, at the same time as choosing from a range of specialist modules in culture, society, translation, intercultural communication and media. You’ll spend your third year in two countries where your chosen languages are spoken.
When you graduate you’ll be able to construct sophisticated arguments in English as well as in both your second languages. You’ll also develop tremendous flexibility, adaptability and resilience during your year abroad – all skills that are highly sought after by employers.
**About This Course**
On this course you’ll devote around two thirds of your time to your language studies, aiming at equal competence in both by the end of your degree. You’ll also be introduced to a range of specialist translation skills, as well as learning about translation issues across the media to help you understand how translation is practiced in a range of contexts. You’ll benefit from practical experience in interpreting in both public service and conference modes, which will give you more insights into the professional world. You’ll also choose from a range of subjects in language, culture, communication and translation. In all of these activities, you’ll use contemporary rather than literary or historical materials.
You’ll also have the opportunity to take a third language as a non-credit module with certification. Depending on availability you can choose from Arabic, British Sign Language, French, German, Greek, Japanese, Spanish, Russian and Advanced English.
