University of Massachusetts Translation Center
The skills required of translators have changed dramatically in the last few years; what once was primarily a linguistic activity has evolved into a complex practice requiring both advanced language and computer skills.
These courses cover a range of techniques and technologies, providing practical information on how to translate faster and more accurately, how to adapt to the new technologies, and how to become more aware of the changing market.
Each class will include discussion of reading assignments, presentation and discussion of short translation assignments, and experimentation with new technology. Knowledge of one language other than English required.
Grades are based on discussion, response papers, several assigned translations, protocols, and a final project.
