Hello!
I will probably start a Master in Translation and Interpreting at Westminster University (London) this month. Anyone knows how the level of the teaching is?

I would recommend it to someone with a background in other industries or those with a degree in languages. However those with a degree in Translation would benefit more from a more specialised MA in an area of their choice.

London Metropolitan University offers a MA in Conference Interpreting, but I don't want to learn this kind of interpreting only. My purpose is not that of applying at the EU in the future, I would like to work in the Italian private market, with Italian, English and French (don't need to improve French, as bilingual). ▲ Collapse
