Overview

The Master’s Degree in Translation and Interpreting aims to train professionals with specialised linguistic expertise in both interpreting and translation (specialised as well as literary), who are able to use digital and multimedia tools and techniques.
Translation studies, understood not only as communication but also as a distinctive form of mediation, address a wide range of linguistic-literary and socio-cultural issues from a comparative, intercultural and inclusive perspective.

The programme is designed for graduates who already possess a strong command of the Chinese and English languages and cultures. It aims to support those wishing to deepen their understanding of translation and interpreting techniques – including consecutive and simultaneous interpreting – as well as the cultural knowledge essential to working in these fields.
