The Centre for Translation Studies (CTS) at University of Surrey invites
applications for a place in our MRes in Translation and Interpreting
Studies course (academic year 2023-24 entry). Students attending this
course get in-depth, systematic research training in translation and
interpreting. This unique and innovative course is the first of its kind
in the UK and draws on the research areas CTS is well known for:
translation and interpreting technologies, translation as intercultural
mediation, corpus-based translation, audiovisual translation, machine
translation and Natural Language Processing for
translation/interpreting. The research we carry out at CTS is in touch
with recent technological and social developments, as we maintain a
strong focus on the responsible integration of technologies in workflows
where multilingual and multimodal mediation is key.
As an MRes student, you will take two compulsory taught modules and
select two optional modules (60 credits). You will then complete your
degree with a dissertation (120 credits), which is longer than in a
typical MA dissertation format, thus allowing you to research a topic in
greater depth. This year, we invite in particular students interested in
pursuing dissertation topics related to:
- NLP and generative AI for multilingual communication
- accessibility services in museums
