My course, programme and module design
MA in Translation programme
“I feel very lucky to have had such an interesting and inspiring MA course”. (2016)
Translation work experience module
“This work experience helped me gain insight into client-translator relationships as well as how to manage your time as a freelance translator. It encouraged me to see other sides of translation as a career besides just literary translation” (2024).
“I thoroughly enjoyed this module as it provided me with the opportunity to apply my translation knowledge and skills in practice. The translation experiments I undertook, along with the subsequent peer discussions, significantly enhanced my confidence in approaching translation work. These experiences greatly boosted my confidence, and I’m excited to have had the chance to refine my translation skills in this way. I am confident that the skills I have honed during this time, as well as the insights gained through our class discussions, will be immensely beneficial for my future career as a translator” (2024).
