Why study Chinese Translation and Interpreting?
The major provides you with knowledge of the key issues in Chinese / English translation and Mandarin / English interpreting, based on the generic NAATI (National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters) certified credential. It introduces you to the professional practice of translation and interpreting, and explores the influence of target cultures and language genre on the translation and interpreting of written and spoken texts between English and Chinese. It additionally develops your critical analytic and vocational skills in translation and interpreting. In so doing, the major provides a solid basis for future postgraduate coursework study e.g. in MACTI.
