As a world city, Hong Kong is in need of competent professional translators for both the public and private legal sectors.
The Open University of Hong Kong has a strong tradition in offering postgraduate and undergraduate programmes in language studies and translation. In addition to its BA (Honours) in Language and Translation and MA in Applied Translation, the School of Arts and Social Sciences will offer a specialised programme, the Master of Arts in Legal Translation (MALT), from September 2008. This programme is designed to meet the growing demand for translators in the legal profession. For students interested in language, the study of legal translation will enhance their knowledge of a specialised field of language use.
