Master of Arts (Hons) in Languages (Interpreting and Translating) (French/British Sign Language)

Program Overview

The Languages Interpreting and Translating (LINT) degree at Heriot-Watt University allows you to study French and British Sign Language to degree level.

Students with only one language at post-Higher/A-Level follow an accelerated intensive language course during Year 1 and join the mainstream language courses from Year 2. The degrees focus on practical language skills, communication studies, European studies and linguistics/ translation studies.

In Year 3 of this course you will spend 1 semester abroad at one of our partner institutions immeresed in the French language. The other semester of Year 3 will be spent on an in-work placement in the UK signing community immersed in British Sign Language.

In Year 3, Students taking BSL and a European language complete two five-month placements. One placement is in the country where their foreign language is spoken (France, Belgium, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Mexico). The other placement is work-based within the UK signing community with an organisation in the field, further developing sign language skills and cultural awareness.
