BA (Language Practice) | Bachelor's degree | Humanities & Culture | On Campus | 3 years | The University of the Free State | South Africa
Society and culture cannot function without language. Practices based on language, such as translation, interpreting, editing, and Terminology design occur every day in the economy, politics, Media, medicine, law and other fields. In the multilingual countries of Africa, journalists, doctors, politicians, civil servants, software designers and others have to perform their work with people who speak different languages. In Language Practice, we guide students to study these practices, the policy context in which they occur, and their influences on society and culture.
