MSc Translation, University of London

[Georgie Foxcroft]

Subject: Translation Masters at Imperial College, University of London

I am writing to tell you about an exciting postgraduate programme in
translation studies.

The Imperial College, University of London MSc in Scientific, Technical and
Medical Translation with Translation Technology, which was launched in
October 2001, is unlike the other British postgraduate translation
programmes since it focuses very specifically on scientific, technical and
medical translation, and on the use of computer-based translation
methodologies. The MSc will be of interest to students of science subjects
who have an excellent knowledge of English, and language graduates who have
some background or interest in science or technology. From September 2003
(the date of our next intake) the programme will be making provision for
speakers of the following languages: Chinese, English, Dutch, French,
German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian,
and Spanish.
Overseas students attending the one-year full-time (or two-year part-time)
programme will find themselves studying alongside students both from the UK
and other countries.

Participants on the programme will receive plenty of practice translating a
wide variety of material, and extensive hands-on experience with up-to-date
translation software. In this way graduates will come to the job market
fully equipped to meet all the challenges which work in the translation
industry will present them with.
Full details of the programme may be found at:

Further information can also be requested from: translation at ic.ac.uk.

I would be very grateful if you could draw this new programme to the
attention of your colleagues and students by forwarding this message to them
by e-mail and/or placing it on your noticeboard.
