Full-time form

Before starting this course, students should have knowledge of general translation theory, fundamentals of specialized translation theories, as well as basic concepts of English grammar, lexicology, and stylistics. They should be able to appropriately apply fundamental translation techniques, identify distinctive and universal features of the national language and culture, plan and evaluate their own work, and use interactive and multimedia tools. They should possess skills in stylistic and translation analysis of texts belonging to prominent genre-stylistic varieties of discourse, approach the analyzed phenomena critically, utilize foreign-language specialized informational sources, and engage in interaction and cooperation in learning situations of exploratory nature.

The aim of the discipline is to enhance the translation competence of master's students and further develop their practical translation skills, which will serve as a foundation for professional and intercultural communication in English. The course aims to familiarize students with the specifics of matrix genre-stylistic characteristics of English scientific-technical, business-economic, press-journalistic, and literary texts, as well as strategies and tactics for their reproduction in Ukrainian translation. It also aims to develop the communicative competence of future philologists for mediating in relevant spheres of social activity.
