Translation Studies. The University of Leicester

The MA in Translation Studies aims to prepare students for the translation professions and for advanced professional or academic research. It combines practice in translating between English and one other language with education in the academic intellectual discipline of Translation Studies. Students will be introduced to the history and theory of translation and to current issues in the discipline; they will receive thorough grounding in research skills and research paradigms relevant to advanced investigations of translation processes, products, contexts and producers, so that they will be ready to enter the professions or progress to further academic study.
