跨文化传意及翻译文学硕士

The Master of Arts in Intercultural Communication and Translation (MAICT) is designed to cultivate students’ intercultural and multicultural awareness, enhancing effective language use in communication with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. The programme combines theoretical coursework with practical training, addressing key areas such as practical translation techniques, professional discourses, sociolinguistics, and intercultural communication strategies. Students develop the skills to navigate and bridge cultural differences, facilitating the effective and nuanced translation of texts and dialogues across various professional contexts.

Programme Objectives

The MAICT aims to provide a comprehensive and relevant professional education that surpasses traditional master’s programmes. It equips students with the necessary academic knowledge, professional skills, and industrial insights to meet the growing demands and challenges of globalisation and the digital era. More importantly, the programme enables students to achieve effective communication with people from different cultural backgrounds. Upon successful completion of the programme, students will be able to:

• demonstrate advanced knowledge of the dynamic relationship between languages and cultures in the global context, and the concepts of intercultural communication.
• apply knowledge of linguistic theories and translation methods to make independent and professional judgments in professional and intercultural communication.
• perform as a competent communicator capable of explaining professional discourse and meeting professional standards of workplace communication in a cross-cultural context.
• utilise specific digital technologies to conduct studies of languages and cultures, and to facilitate translation outcomes and other communication activities in professional settings.
