For the consecutive Master's degree course, students must choose one or two working foreign languages. Course content includes: simultaneous, consecutive, liaison and whisper interpreting, interpreting of written texts, translation of conference texts, modern research techniques, electronic aids, conference technique, organisation of interpreting work at conferences.

The aim of the course is for students to acquire the necessary methodological knowledge and the necessary skills in the fields of translation/interpreting, specialist interpreting, language processing and specialist communication and terminology, so that they can understand language messages in the source language rapidly and correctly and interpret them in the target language in a linguistically and rhetorically appropriate manner while preserving the content and its stylistic features.
