Master in Technical Translation and Interpreting University of Salento

The course aims to provide students with a high level of theoretical and practical knowledge of translation and interpreting between Italian and English. None of the 2nd foreign languages (if chosen) include interpreting at Salento. The course is organised into 2 programmes: the Essex Programme and the UniSalento Programme. Both programmes essentially offer a similar study plan (you will find a detailed list in the section ‘Course Modules’). The main difference between the two is that the Essex programme is more focussed on translation and interpretation, while the Salento programme is more wide ranging, offering strands including cinema, medicine, history, and tourism. Also, those admitted to the Essex Programme attend the second year at the University of Essex and will be awarded both a Masters in Translation, Interpreting and Subtitling from the University of Essex and a Masters from the Università del Salento in Traduzione Tecnico-Scientifica e Interpretariato.
