I highly recommend UMass Boston for the Translation Course. After looking in my state, TX, I couldn’t find any other University that could offer a substantial amount of literature regarding linguistics. It is a plus to be fluent in both languages because it helps to interpret and understand the true meaning of the text.
From my personal experience, I can say that this is a very rewarding course. You learn with peers to collaborate in a translation and others learn from you as well. It is not stressful, but it is not that easy either. The small details count a lot, the editing process is very important to be able to be successful in the final product.
The instructors are very nice, they have high interpersonal, social skills, in other words, you will like them and vice versa.
I hope this makes sense, and you go with UMass Boston for the Translation course.
