Core Units
All students take the following core units:
Optional Units
All the optional units are for a single semester.
Extra-Curricular Units
A variety of extra-curricular units are offered, designed to provide students with background knowledge that will underpin their language-related work. These include:
Students who wish to proceed to the MA in Translation and Professional Language Skills must submit a 15,000 word dissertation after successful completion of the taught section of the programme.
Please note that the Optional Unit of Précis Writing is not available for German and Italian which means that those offering German or Italian only on the course (one language only) will have to take Public Service Interpreting as an optional unit in Semester 2.
Placements are normally organised during the year with the language services of international organisations, government departments or translation companies. They are not a compulsory part of the programme nor can they be guaranteed.
