ATC Collaborative MA Projects in 2021

In 2021, the ATC kicks off three Collaborative MA Projects with students from the University of Portsmouth and the University of Surrey, on varied industry topics:

• ISO 20771 standard on legal translation in the UK setting
• Effects of the decline in language studies on native English translator resources in the UK
• BAME representation in the UK’s language services industry

The ATC’s Collaborative MA Projects are part of on-going collaboration established with key university partners from across the UK.

The programme expands on the ATC’s existing engagement with the academic community, initiating and supporting Master’s Dissertation projects that address questions relevant for the language services industry, set by the ATC.

Within the programme, outstanding Translation Studies and Applied Languages Master’s Degree students from partner universities have a unique opportunity to work together with the ATC on a collaborative project, and gain an insight into the language services industry.
