my experience... Mar 3

hi everyone!
I began my university courses in Milan at Scuole Civiche Milano and then i moved to trieste where I graduated last July.
Both schools are good but I don't like the city of Milan...
From september I will move to Genève to begin a 2 years master...and I am so happy about that!
When I will begin studying there I will post my impression of the school...
bye bye

Hello eveybody...

Well I was quite fed up with the French system, so I decided to study abroad, and I am currently finishing my degree in Glendon College, Toronto. The campus is small, teachers are great and I loved my degree.

I would be happy to give anyone more info about my school.

Probably everyone thinks their mother school/university is the best in the country



Hehe, I have to agree 100% with that sentiment! I'm studying at Aston University and it's truly a joy, the only downside is that the language school is a bit underfinanced and therefore not all that it could be. However, I was a Translation Studies student rep this year and we've managed to improve a few things, so really it does get better all the time

The language school is very small, but apart from the money issue it's a plus - the community is very close-knit, the lecturers are wonderful and they not only know your name but also remember what you were like 2 years ago, and they are dedicated to helping you succeed.

The course is quite a mixture of theory and practice, shifting from 'mainly theory' to 'mainly practice' as you go from year to year. Apart from classes taken by everyone like translation theory or linguistics, everything happens in the language you're studying - I was shocked to learn it was not the norm at all universities!

Really, I have loved my time here so much, I can't sing praises enough. I will be really really sad to leave, to the point of considering a PhD just for an excuse to come back! As one of the lecturers told us in October: "We are already thinking about how sad it will be to see you guys go - when you were going for the year abroad we knew you were coming back!"

Which places in B.A. are good ? Mar 13

Hello,

I know there are very few places in my country to study translation, and as far as I know if you want to study interpretation in my country, forget it becuase that's not taught here.

In BA are there any good Institutions or Universities where to study Interpretation and/or translation ?

Thanks,

Pablo.Paul

Hey Pablo, do you mean Buenos Aires? Here in La Plata (not far from Bs As) we have the Universidad Nacional de La Plata which is apparently a popular place to study translation (check out how many of us UNLP students there are in the StudentZ Community!!). Whether it's good or not, I'll leave it to an advanced student to answer that

Hello!
I'm studying English and Chinese translation and interpreting at Fudan University, China, which isn't listed. Fudan University is based in the city of Shanghai. The Department of Translation and Interpretation, which is under the College of Foreign Languages and Literatures, was founded in 2004.
