Description

This course will focus on Interpreting in multi-party business negotiations as well as on medical and welfare settings. The course will introduce students to the contextual knowledge needed to operate in these three settings and will develop the interpreting and linguistic skills necessary to work as professional business and community interpreters. The course will combine theory and practice and will be informed by the results of research into these subfields of interpreting. The course will consist of a one-hour lecture in English and a two-hour language specific practical tutorial.
