Program Description

This Online English to German General Translation Course enables language specialists, communication managers, and aspiring translators to accurately transfer English texts into professional German across diverse subject areas including science, society, and legal topics. Participants develop the analytical and linguistic expertise needed to capture complex nuances and deliver target texts that are natural and culturally appropriate.

The curriculum centers on essential translation methodology, syntactic differences between English and German, semantics, and intercultural pragmatics. Through a structured series of practical translation assignments, students refine their linguistic expression, acquire structured problem-solving strategies for challenging source passages, and gain insights into computer-aided translation practices.

Delivered through a flexible digital learning platform, the program allows participants to study independently from any location while receiving detailed instructor feedback on submitted coursework. The course includes full access to digital libraries and learning tools, concluding with a three-hour proctored examination that grants a recognized university certificate with five ECTS credits.
