IFSA AUP - Spanish Translation and Linguistics in Buenos Aires

• Advanced Spanish and Argentine Culture: The objective of this mandatory program class is to enrich the knowledge of Spanish language in the following four areas: oral comprehension, oral expression, written expression and reading comprehension while analyzing the cultural context in which the language was developed and is currently spoken.
• Introduction to Spanish Translation: This course has dual objectives: it aims to help students improve their Spanish language by completing assignments based on Spanish-English translations, as well as focusing on grammatical issues as well as discursive (vocabulary, particular structures, record variety and dialects, etc.). It also gives students an up-close examination of the world of translation, including fundamental aspects of translation theory and exercises that highlight the hurdles of such tasks.
• Introduction to Spanish Linguistics: This course exposes students to a level of linguistic information that allows them to consolidate their competency in Spanish and become familiar with other important aspects of contemporary Spanish linguistics. Students begin with an exploration of the sounds of Spanish language and its theoretical representation, followed by a discussion of several aspects of Spanish syntax and morphology. Finally, there is a brief introduction to regional and social variations as well as relevant characteristics throughout the Americas and especially Argentina.
• Seminar on Methodology of Translation: Students choose a practical component (internship or writing workshop) where they will spend 60 to 80 hours in the semester. The seminar introduces methodology and theory of literary studies and is aimed at supporting the internship or writing workshop, along with the preparation of a final paper where students analyze their experiences, the goals they had planned to achieve, challenges they faced, and their achievements. The course includes intensive student participation and ongoing reflection about the internship and other cultural experiences through writing, individual presentations, in-class discussions and individual meetings with the professor to monitor work progress and final paper preparation.

Also, keep in mind:

• Yearlong courses (anual) are open only to students who plan on taking both semesters of the course.
• 1 semestre (S1) or cuatrimestre is equal to U.S. spring semester.
• 2 semestre (S2) or cuatrimestre is equal to U.S. fall semester.
