English-Chinese Translation & Interpreting

Studying in Swansea has been a truly remarkable experience for me. The dedication of the teachers here is unparalleled; they not only ensure personalized attention for each student but also deliver lectures meticulously, without relying on scripts. I have encountered teachers who genuinely care about every student's progress. Despite the large number of students, I always felt valued and supported, receiving the individual attention I needed. Swansea University has fostered an environment where learning is not just about absorbing information but also about nurturing individual growth. My time here has been transformative, and I am incredibly grateful for the wonderful learning atmosphere and the caring community of educators. I am now doing my postgraduate degree at University College London in the subject of Translation and Culture.

Being a student in the Modern Language Department at Swansea University was a terrific experience in my education years, with excellent professors and events which made my learning experience so much more enjoyable. The modules are designed to improve all aspects of a professional future translator and interpreter. Students are pushed far beyond the fundamental skills required by a language professional. For me, I gained core knowledge in my major - English-Chinese Translation and interpreting) as well as so many other skills. These three years in Swansea University were definitely one of the happiest times in my life.
