Summary
**Why choose this course**
This unique and innovative course is the first of its kind in the UK. You’ll get in-depth, systematic research training in translation and interpreting, and customised preparation for our PhD. Alternatively, you can take this course as a stand-alone MRes degree.
We’re one of the UK’s top translation research centres, with more than three decades of experience in postgraduate education and research training. We focus on exciting and newly developing areas of the discipline, such as translation and interpreting technologies, machine translation, translation process research, translation as intercultural mediation, corpus-based translation, audiovisual translation and multi-modality studies.
The Centre for Translation Studies (CTS) has developed an ambitious new research programme which will place you at the very heart of future developments. This programme informs our teaching and provides a strong focus on the responsible integration of human and machine translation and interpreting.
**What you will study**
By studying an MRes Translation and Interpreting Studies degree at Surrey, you’ll join our internationally recognised Centre for Translation Studies. We combine leading research expertise with professional relevance, providing you with the skills to thrive in either academia or industry.
You’ll explore modules on translation and interpreting research, and challenge assumptions in stimulating debates, especially on the role of the human translator in the era of increasing translation automation and in contexts of diverse, rapidly evolving technology-enhanced multilingual services. You will also discuss current ideas and research with your peers, our doctoral students and teaching staff.
Our range of optional modules will let you specialise in your own area of interest, while also developing your analytical skills. You’ll take on evidence-based, interdisciplinary research relevant to the world today, giving you a competitive edge as you enter the workplace or pursue further study.
During your studies, you will have an opportunity to demonstrate academic and professional excellence by winning prizes. These include the following:
RWS Campus Top Student Award (two Trados licenses)
