Translation Workshop-VT/Tokyo

Translation Workshop in Vermont, Tokyo, and California
Students with advanced fluency in the languages of German, French, Russian, Spanish, Arabic, or Italian will be trained to translate from English into their language of specialization. After a week of orientation, students will travel to Japan (expenses paid) and spend a week working with counterparts from MIIS in translating promotional materials for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics from English into their respective languages. Final polishing of translations will be done during the balance of the term, one week in Monterey and one week in Vermont. Students will gain knowledge of basic theories and principles of translation and substantial practical experience. Students will be admitted by application only, and will be expected to have strong linguistic skills in the language they will translate. (Approval required; Pass/Fail)
