CHIN 5015 - Translation Internship

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2017

This course offers valuable experiential opportunities to students from both Chinese and English speaking backgrounds, to enhance their translation expertise in an 80-hour supervised practicum. This unit consists of three components: (1) observation of a practitioner approaching particular translation tasks; (2) simulated work experience; and (3) work experience at an institution assigned and/or approved by the co-ordinator. Upon completion of this unit, students are expected to (1) have accumulated competence, confidence and experience adequate for a future career in professional translation; and (2) have developed an in-depth understanding of, and a clear conviction for the career of a professional translator. Successful completion of the translation internship is compulsory for recommendation for NAATI Accreditation.
