French Language and Literature, General
Language Interpretation and Translation
Description:
In addition to mastery of one's native language and a thorough command of a second language, translation requires in-depth knowledge of specialized fields and subject areas (economics, administration, finance, the arts, etc.), excellent writing skills, the ability to work in diverse situations, and a quick, inquisitive mind. Computer and communication technologies worldwide are dramatically increasing the need for cultural expertise, and for proficient and highly skilled translators in conventional and developing domains.
The Co-operative Education program in Traduction reflects the changing needs and demands within the profession, and allows excellent students to gain valuable practical experience that will serve them well after graduation. An entrance test and an interview are required in order to be admitted into the program.
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
