• ML-M20 Language, Translation and Interpreting Research Skills

  This module introduces students to the practice of postgraduate research and dissertation writing in the field of Modern Languages, Translation and Interpreting, and will guide them in the first part of their dissertation preparation. Students will be thoroughly trained to write a dissertation proposal and will gain enhanced domain-focused research skills that are key for a successful MA dissertation. Should they later decide to advance to a PhD level, they will also be on a very good standing with their advanced language and translation research skills gained through this process.

• MLAM01 Advanced Translation (English-Arabic)

  In 16 x1.5hr small-group seminars running through Semester 1 and into Semester 2, students will translate, discuss and annotate both non-technical and technical texts. Practice assignments will grow progressively longer to reflect real-world conditions and students will on occasion be expected to work together, critiquing and editing each other's work to produce a collaborative finished version. Techniques for discovering domain-specific knowledge and translating technical terminology will be explored and developed. Assessment will be by three test translations in different domains done through the year under exam conditions (2 hours with dictionaries and/or electronic resources), each counting for 25% of the marks of the module, plus one Terminology Project or Wikipedia Project counting for the final 25%.

• MLT317 Simulated Translation Bureau

  As a student of translation, you tend to work with much precision on the solution of individual translation problems. This is of course an essential component of the work of professional translators. However, when you make the step from being a translation student to working as a professional translator, there are other factors that play a role in your day-to-day work. This module is intended to provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to make this step successfully.

• MLTM05 Foundations of Translation and Interpreting

  Studying translation involves a number of special skills. They include, for instance, making optimal use of monolingual and bilingual dictionaries, and writing a well-structured commentary explaining your translation strategy or your use of specialized software. There are also some general skills you need, such as setting up a bibliography for a particular topic and formatting your documents to a professional standard. Apart from these skills, this module will also give you some general introductory knowledge of, for instance, the difference between terms and words and the organization of Computer-Assisted Translation tools and an up-to-date overview of the translation and interpreting industry. Finally, this module will introduce you to basic linguistic concepts and terminology, which you can use in discussing your translation work.
