Prepare yourself for a career in sought-after specialist language work including translation, editing and précis-writing. If youre interested in working as a professional linguist, working with the written word to provide translations and specialised language services, this course is an excellent option. With a growing demand for highly trained speakers of English in the UK and abroad, the specialist masters will equip you to set up your own freelance business or work in-house for an international organisation or agency. Unlike other courses of its kind, ours covers editing, revision, précis-writing and proofreading. Employers and agencies have told us they’re looking for these services, so having the right skills will place you in a strong position for securing work. Youll also gain skills in public service and commercial interpreting, and will learn about setting up in business. In many cases, we can arrange external translation training. This may be in an international organisation, such as the EU and UN, or another independent agency, and will give you first-hand experience of the workplace and valuable contacts for building your career. Bath has a memorandum of understanding with the UN and the European Parliament for training interpreters and translators. Their trainers visit us regularly, offering a unique insight into the skills needed to work there. The course is taught by highly qualified tutors. While some have worked for international organisations, others have developed their careers as freelance linguists. All bring extensive experience to the classroom to give students invaluable advice.
You must have successfully completed an UK Bachelor degree (or equivalent overseas qualification) or/with full-time or equivalent, work experience in a relevant industry setting. Meeting the minimum academic requirements does not guarantee entry. Your application will still need to be assessed and accepted. If you dont meet the entry requirements, there may be other programs you are eligible for that can lead you to your preferred program.
