Postgraduate Course at Vigo University

Next year, the University of Vigo will have two more postgraduate degrees. They are both related to translation and interpreting, so they will be very useful if we are considering continuing our academic training.

On the one hand, we have the Postgraduate in Audiovisual Translation. In order to complete it, students must pass all the subjects of the theoretical and methodological module and 5 out of the 6 subjects of the other modules that we will explain next. Besides this, students must complete as well a practical module, which includes a dissertation and an internship at any of the companies that have signed an agreement with the University of Vigo.

Apart from all this, we must also mention that this postgraduate degree will also count with the helping hands of well-known professionals and professors such as Jorge Díaz Cintas.
