Master Traduction Et Interpretation — Traduction spécialisée

Traduction spécialisée (specialized translation) is a track of the master's program Traduction et Interprétation at Institut national des langues et civilisations orientales in Paris, France. The program lasts two years, is taught in French, has an inferred September start, and costs 250 EUR per year in tuition. Specialized translation is a branch of translation studies focused on rendering technical, legal, scientific, economic, or other domain-specific texts accurately from one language into another, requiring not only linguistic competence but also familiarity with the terminology and conventions of the subject area being translated. Students in this field typically study translation theory and methodology, terminology management, computer-assisted translation tools, and practice translating texts in specific domains such as law, business, science, or technology. Given the school's orientation toward languages and civilizations of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, programs in this setting often work with a wide range of source and target languages beyond the most commonly taught European ones. Coursework combines practical translation exercises with study of the linguistic and cultural context of the languages involved, and may include internships or projects with translation agencies or organizations. This training develops skills in precise written translation, terminology research, and the use of professional translation software. Graduates pursue careers as freelance or in-house translators, terminologists, localization specialists, or language service project managers, working for translation agencies, international organizations, corporations, or public institutions. Because the program is taught in French, applicants need strong French proficiency alongside command of at least one other working language relevant to their chosen specialization. Paris offers a large market for translation and language services, along with international organizations and institutions.
