This interdisciplinary MA programme explores how humans communicate across linguistic, cultural, and societal difference. Crossing the fields of literary, media, technology, and accessibility studies, the programme allows you to develop deep disciplinary knowledge and skills alongside an ability to recognise the value of interdisciplinary approaches, and to use them to design your own research projects.
A balance of individual and group work, combined with feedback from lecturers and peers, will allow you to grow in confidence as a transcultural thinker and communicator. You will express complex ideas in more than one language in an accessible and engaging manner, both verbally and in writing. The mandatory core units - Translation Practice and Analysis (Multilingual); Research Methods in Translation and Interdisciplinary Studies; and Language, Ethics, and Communication - equip you with practical and critical-reflective skills in translation and intercultural studies.
