University of California, San Diego (Program Translation & Interpretation Spanish/English)

Demand for qualified translators and interpreters is strong in California. Of the nearly 5.5 million Californians who speak Spanish, nearly 650,000 speak very limited English. This growing trend leads to increased demand for translation and interpretation services, particularly in the San Diego region, with its large immigrant population and close proximity to Mexico. According to Occupational Outlook Quarterly, growth in employment within this field is projected to increase in the United States by 24% between 2000 and 2010. Understanding of cultural nuances and a developed skill set are crucial to producing meaningful translations and interpretations. The program at UCSD Extension certifies to potential employers that a student possesses the necessary theoretical knowledge and skill set to perform the job well.
