English and Translation Studies is a two-year program for students seeking employment in business and professional organizations where proficiency in English and Turkish is essential to translate into either language. Upon successful completion of the program students are awarded the degree of Associate of Arts in Translation.

The program provides sound vocational training in translation and interpreting from English into Turkish and Turkish into English. Courses specifically designed to lay a foundation for linguistic ability and to heighten awareness in the target and source cultures are offered to students as support to a wide range of courses in written translation, audiovisual translation and interpreting.

A high standard of English and Turkish is required for successful translators. Those students who are admitted into the program but whose level of English does not permit them to join the freshman year of the program are required to enter the Preparatory Program in order to meet the minimum requirement for entry into the freshman year.
