MA Translation, Interpreting and Subtitling


UNIVERSITY OF ESSEX
Overall Rating

I love the fact that my course is one of a kind. Before choosing my programme, I researched other universities in the UK and Essex was the only one that combined translation and interpreting with subtitling. This is definitely a career boost! Another thing I love is the facilities that we have at our disposal for interpreting, which includes conference booths and computer labs with specialised software used by professionals for translation and subtitling. Another thing that was important for me was the fact that I was offered a Latin American scholarship for £ 5,000, which is £1,000 more than the Academic Excellence scholarships that most universities offer. Lastly, I love the fact that Essex is not too far from London, so that allows me to travel into the city from time to time.

Accommodation

I live in a self-contained apartment with my boyfriend and we pay £128 weekly. Even though it’s a bit on the expensive side, there are other aspects of it that make it super convenient. For instance, I save money on transport as all my lectures are within a few minutes’ walking distance. Also, we have stores, a theatre, restaurants and even a club on campus so it’s not super necessary to go into town unless we’re looking for something very specific.
