DEPARTMENTAL CERTIFICATE IN SPANISH TRANSLATION The certificate in Spanish translation provides a course of study that prepares the student in the special skills involved in the role of translator. The award of the certificate provides evidence of practical competence in translating written texts to or from Spanish; interpretation of spoken Spanish is not involved. There are four required translation courses that must be satisfactorily completed, following which students may take a demanding final proficiency examination. Satisfactory performance on the examination entitles the student to receive the certificate in translation. Those students whose performance is judged only adequate may receive credit for completing the course sequence, but will not be awarded the certificate. The certificate requires 12 s.h. credit as follows:   SPAN 3340. Introduction to Translation (3) (P: SPAN 3330 or consent of dept chair; RC: SPAN 3335) SPAN 4340.
