Notes
DescriptionStudies in Chinese translation provide a solid foundation in basic Chinese translation and interpreting skills but is not a professional qualification in this area. Upon completion of the major, students are expected to have developed a good understanding of basic concepts of translation and interpreting, professional language skills in both written and verbal forms, through translation and cultural sensitivity and knowledge necessary for communicating in Chinese and English in professional contexts. Students will be in a strong position to pursue further studies that will lead to a professional qualification in translation and/or interpreting..

Students are not permitted to accelerate their enrolment without first obtaining approval from the Chinese studies program.
