Literary Translation Microcredential

This integrative curricular microcredential enables students to develop a theoretical and practical understanding of the processes of literary translation alongside cross-cultural competencies. Through the microcredential’s core components, students will develop an understanding of the conceptual and practical decisions literary translators make; develop and deploy core craft skills in creative writing as part of a literary translation project; and develop skills working across languages.
