Professional profile
The Master aims to train professional translators specialized in the main specialized languages of English, and aims to respond to the needs of the current job market, increasingly marked by specialization on the one hand and globalization on the other. The constant exchanges and migratory flows that characterize our society require increasingly specific and high-level language training. The Master therefore wants to offer an answer to the requests that, as emerged from the consultations with companies and bodies of various kinds, reach the market in the field of specialized translation, offering in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge in the most requested domains.
