The TTS track of the Spanish M.A. degree consists of graduate course work in the history and theory of translation and the analysis and translation of major discourse domains: e.g., business, medical, technical, legal, scholarly, and literary. It also includes special topics courses in Spanish-English translation, up to 3 hours of professional internship in translating, study abroad possibilities, and a translation thesis option.
Course work in applied language areas such as Business Spanish, a strength in the department (see Certificate in Business Language at http://languages.uncc.edu/Undergraduate-Certificate-Programs/business-language-certificate-program.html), is especially appropriate for the TTS track. This specialized track serves individuals interested in a career related to professional translation or in enhancing their career or work opportunities as language and culture specialists in today's global economy and in a nation where Spanish is becoming increasingly important. It also provides preparation for those who may wish to pursue a Ph.D. in fields such as Spanish, linguistics, translating and translation studies, intercultural communication, or international studies.
