Applied Linguistics & Translation
Translation and Applied Linguistics is one of the few programs that integrate different fields of study to develop students' abilities both theoretically and practically. The program primarily aims at preparing translators in all fields by providing them with the theoretical bases in the applied linguistic courses. So I think that the program is successful as it connects between theory and application. Moreover, the program provides innovative environment by focusing on other skills such as the development of diverse cultural thoughts which results in respecting both the other side and the different cultures. In addition, the program helps in the development of students' abilities in scientific research by encouraging them to think and search for a solution to the problems they encounter as students and workers in the field of translation
The program was resourceful and full of new experiences that opened new horizons for me. Undoubtedly, joining the master's program was an academic journey that polished my character as a researcher and critic in the field of linguistics and translation.
