I joined Translation major in UAE University because I am passionate about translation
and languages. The university has a distinguished B.A program in Translation and Interpreting
with highly qualified professors. We have a variety of translation and interpreting
courses that focus on different text types and contexts. We also have a Translation
Lab equipped with modern technologies that make our learning experience valuable.
The program offers opportunities for students to practice translation, interpreting
and research skills. The English Literature Program in UAE University is an enjoyable, expertly curated
program that allowed me to learn much more about literature than just text. What I
love about this program is the range of material from different time periods and different
cultures. It is a petri dish of poetry and prose. Being a student in the Translation Studies program at UAEU allowed me to explore diverse
scientific, literary, and cultural domains. Translation is a distinct art; it relies
on creativity and linguistic fluency, and helps build communication bridges to fulfill
the linguistic needs of the community. It is especially important because it contributes
to various aspects of science and knowledge. The curriculum includes many specialized
courses such as legal, scientific, modern media, and business translation as well
as interpreting. Moreover, it offers practical training opportunities. Being in the linguistics program in UAEU has been an incredibly valuable experience
for me. The program offers a high quality and well-rounded education in Linguistics
and provides you with the necessary tools to pursue a future in the field. The faculty
members always do their best to support us in our studies and offer us many wonderful
opportunities to further our knowledge of the field. My professors challenged me to
become a better student, linguist, and thinker. I am proud to be a part of this program
and university. Psychology is one of the most important sciences, and the UAE University pays great
attention to this specialty. This program greatly helps in developing the individual
personally and professionally and helps the person in his way of thinking and his
view of events. . . . In the end, the decision to enter this major was one of the
best decisions I made in my life.Student Testimonials
