I am currently enrolled in a Graduate Certificate in Advanced Translation Studies at the University of Denver, University College. While it is a graduate certificate and not a full master’s degree, the credits can be applied to a MSL, which makes it the closest thing to a 100% online masters degree in translation offered by a U.S. university, as far as I know.

Can anyone offer information on other online graduate level programs in translation?

I would love to learn a bit more about what is out there. ▲ Collapse
