Languages and Translation BA Honours

The Languages and Translation BA Honours provides a comprehensive foundation in linguistic analysis, translation theory, and professional practice. Students study language structure, register, discourse, and textual analysis, applying these concepts to authentic translation tasks. Core modules develop competence in translation, while optional pathways allow exploration of international communication, world cultures, politics, gender issues, and specialized topics. Assessment integrates coursework, essays, presentations, and examinations, and the programme offers opportunities for a placement year, study abroad, or a final research project. Teaching combines lectures, seminars, workshops, and guided self‑study, preparing graduates for roles as professional translators and multicultural communication specialists.
