Recommended Study Sequence

This core unit in the postgraduate Interpreting and Translation programs is divided into two main sections: interpreting techniques and translation techniques, including information technology. This unit deals with high-level specialised technical skills necessary for the different types of interpreting: dialogue, consecutive, simultaneous and sight translation. It also deals with various aspects of translation and information technology relevant to translation (i.e., computer-assisted translation technologies and the use of the Internet). The unit is run in English for students of all languages.

This unit will aim to provide an overview of the major theoretical notions which underpin the practice of Interpreting and Translation. A background knowledge of this theory is essential in the development of professional skills, behaviour and praxis.

This unit aims to develop skills in translation from and into English in a number of specialised fields: medical documents; technical papers; legal documents; advertising material; journal articles. The aim of the unit is for students to develop skills in producing target texts in styles appropriate to the source text content and function, researching and developing appropriate specialist terminology, editing and revising, and producing camera-ready documents. The unit will be available, depending on sufficient demand, for Arabic, Japanese, Mandarin, Spanish and Vietnamese.

This unit aims to equip students to perform adequately as legal interpreters by providing them with the relevant theoretical and practical training.

This unit aims to develop students' skills in interpreting at the Professional level (formerly NAATI Level 3) through the modes of dialogue interpreting, consecutive interpreting, simultaneous interpreting and sight translation in the domain of health services.

This unit is aimed at providing students with the opportunity to make useful observations about practical aspects of the Interpreting and/or Translation professions and related fields (such as the Legal System), as well as with supervised practice in the workplace. Students will complete the practical work relevant to their field of specialisation, i.e., Interpreting or Translation or Interpreting and Translation.

This is a compulsory unit in all the NAATI approved awards. It aims to provide practice and constructive feedback to students preparing for the accreditation examinations. A pass in the unit in at least one of the Interpreting, Translation into English, or Translation from English examinations with 70% will make students eligible for NAATI accreditation on completion of the rest of the requirements of the course.
