This unit equips students with the knowledge and skills to build up a specialist area of expertise in translation. Students will learn to research and translate practice texts taken from at least two of the categories offered by the Chartered Institute of Linguists (legal, literary, commercial, social sciences, science and technology). They will build a glossary, and comment on their work and the translation process to the group via the discussion board. They will be required to share their experience and to network with their peers to solve translation problems.
