Overview

The curriculum in the Teaching of Interpreting program at Wake Forest University lays the foundation for understanding the interpreting encounter, the co-conversational process, and sociocultural determinations, among other important goals, and it includes a broad interdisciplinary research component, which is absent from the training seminars/workshops of other, non-academic programs.

Key Facts

The ITS Program prepares professionals to work in the growing language industry and meet the communication challenges in a variety of fields – foreign affairs, media, business, law and healthcare delivery.

This track requires strong foreign language competency and proven interpreting experience. It is, however, non-language specific. Courses are held in English and it is open to candidates with any language combination.

Duration and course requirements

This is a full-time (35 credit hour), intense, two-semester course of studies that runs from the end of August until mid-May. In addition to the coursework, an internship and an applied research project will allow students to make a rigorous connection between the practical experience in the workplace and their more theoretical experience in the classroom.

Each application, whether from a domestic or international applicant, is evaluated and considered on its own merits and academic qualifications. Consideration is also given to previous research experience, publications, and work performance.

International applicants whose native language is not English are required to take the TOEFL or IELTS examinations

Applicants whose native language is not English, but English was the primary medium of instruction at the public, undergraduate, or graduate school level, should include an official statement from their degree granting institution confirming that English was the medium of instruction. Once this statement has been received, the Graduate School will confirm by email or written document that the English requirement has been met.
