This Modern Languages, Translation and Interpreting degree focuses on developing your language skills to near-native fluency as well as equipping you with specialist and in-demand skills such as translating and interpreting.

The third year of your degree will be spent abroad, so you can develop your language skills among native speakers and experience a different culture.

Your knowledge and skills of translation and interpreting also ensure you leave Newcastle University as a sought-after graduate with attributes highly prized by employers.

You'll become a confident multilinguist, ready to embark on your career as a global citizen.

You may decide to embark directly upon a career in translation and interpreting, or you could follow in the tracks of some graduates, and find work in areas as diverse as tourism, marketing, management, the civil service, advertising and the media, teaching and banking.

Alternatively, if you want to study translation and interpreting further, our degree is excellent preparation for a postgraduate professional qualification.
