This is the official Facebook page for the Master of Arts in Spanish program at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC)
The Department of Languages and Culture Studies at UNC Charlotte offers a well established curriculum for graduate study in Spanish and we have several options to choose from:
We have two tracks for our MASTER OF ARTS IN SPANISH:
Track I: Language, Literature and Culture (LLC)
The LLC track consists of graduate courses in a wide variety of Literature topics, Culture topics (including film studies), Spanish linguistics, methodology and applied language (Spanish for business and international trade for example), and up to 3 hours of professional internship in Spanish. The LLC track allows for an in-depth development of Spanish language skills and is especially recommended for teachers of Spanish. It also provides excellent preparation for individuals who may wish to pursue the Ph.D. in Spanish, for whom courses in literature and linguistics are especially recommended.
Track II: Translating and Translation Studies (TTS)
The TTS track consists of graduate course work in the history and theory of translation and in the analysis and translation of different types of texts and discourse: business, technical, medical, legal, scholarly, and literary. Course work in applied language areas such as Business Spanish is especially appropriate for the TTS track. This specialized track serves individuals interested in a career in professional translation or in enhancing their career or work opportunities as language and culture specialists in today's global economy and in a nation where Spanish is becoming increasingly important. It also provides preparation for those who may wish to pursue a Ph.D. in fields such as Spanish, linguistics, translating and translation studies, intercultural communication, or international studies.
GRADUATE CERTIFICATE IN TRANSLATING AND TRANSLATION STUDIES (GCTTS):
GCTTS offers seminars and workshops in the history, theory, and practice of translation, providing learners and practitioners with contexts, strategies, and a professional discourse for their hands-on engagement in the art/craft/science of translating.
Designed for post-baccalaureate, graduate, and post-graduate students, this Certificate provides an attractive credential for current or past M.A. students who wish to complement their M.A. degree, or for practicing translators, interpreters, and other cross-cultural professionals who work in English and Spanish.
