The Translation and Localization Management program offered by Middlebury Institute of International Studies's graduates work around the world in a range of roles, including as localization program managers and language leads at tech firms like Netflix, Google, and Salesforce, and as project managers at leading translation companies.

Key Facts

AI is changing the language services industry. Most, if not all job descriptions in the localization industry are being rewritten and expanded to include AI.

From its inception, our program has prepared graduates to leverage new technologies and lead:

You will learn to incorporate AI into your work, increasing your efficiency and scale.
You will develop skills that allow you to respond to changes, e.g. hard skills like workflow design and coding, soft skills like adaptability and change management, troubleshooting, and problem-solving.
You will build a growth mindset allowing you to respond to this change and future changes.
The program combines language, culture, business, and technology. The technology may change and the way we translate may change but the fundamental business of the industry remains the same.
