 We live in a globalised world where translation and interpretation are becoming more necessary every day. We need translation in almost every industry, be it media, business, healthcare, travel or entertainment. People, companies and NGOs need translation more than ever. With translation you can reach more people than you could otherwise. You can help more people and foster dialogues between different cultures. All of these necessities exist today and will continue to. I'm Ayona Douglas and I'm doing the master's degree in translation studies. I decided to do the master's degree in translation studies because I wanted to learn how to translate better. The course also offers a good balance between theoretical and practical training. In addition, the intensive schedule offers me the opportunity to find a balance between my studies, other work or professional practices that the master offers. The location of the faculty is very important. Barcelona is very important at a technological and business level. So there are many opportunities to find practices here. If you want to work in technical translation, legal translation or business in the future, it's a good place to start. The strong points of this master's degree are the fact that we have the opportunity to practice simultaneous interpretation in the interview rooms. The professors have years of experience and know their sectors very well. In addition, during the master's degree, you feel very accompanied by them thanks to the program of tutorials and the groups of classes reduced to the vast majority of assignments. Some of my colleagues value the fact that the master has known researchers and plans to go to the doctorate later. We need translators who are on the day of modern technology and the necessary lexicon to translate in these areas. In addition, we must ensure that the best possible formats are possible in a world in which the translation is present in all places. The master of Pompeo Fabra has helped me acquire a conscience and a theoretical understanding of this reality and has adopted the necessary tools and knowledge.
