Spanish/English Interpreting

Catalog description

This course examines the process of interpreting through hands-on experiences with both Spanish and English as target and source languages in the process of interpreting. Starting with consecutive interpreting and ending with simultaneous interpreting, students apply interpreter theory, exercise process tasks, and practice fundamental interpreting skills and standards in a variety of simulated settings. Students discuss, develop, and practice strategies to deal with problematic Spanish and cross-cultural situations. Pre or co-requisite: SPA 354. Three lecture hours per week.
