Overview

This MA in Translation Studies uses English and Chinese as working languages.

This course has two stages. Each stage lasts one year. You can either:

or join at Stage 2 and follow the one-year course (this depends on your previous qualifications and experience)

Stage 1 is made up of compulsory modules. You'll gain a thorough grounding in translation and interpreting skills and techniques.
