Our activities and assessments reflect real-world tasks, so you’ll experience professionally orientated training in both generic and language-specific skills and knowledge, preparing you for a career as a professional translator, while also gaining the transferable and cognitive skills necessary for lifelong personal and professional development.<br/><br/>Alongside core modules in translation, the course offers a wide range of option modules, covering topics including international communications, world cultures, current affairs, politics and gender issues.<br/><br/>One of the highlights of studying languages at Westminster is the opportunity to embark on a transformative international experience.
