Graduate Diploma in Translation
CCTR 551 Comprehensive Evaluation
Students completing the Graduate Diploma in Translation (GDIT) must sit a
comprehensive examination at the conclusion of the GDIT Program. The
examination consists of an oral defense of a best-work portfolio. This
portfolio represents a record of progress made by the candidate throughout
his/her studies. Each candidate prepares a written introduction and
comments on selected examples of coursework with a view to demonstrating
his/her progress toward greater translation competence.
The comprehensive examination is public and therefore open to other
students and faculty members. All examinations will be held at 688
Sherbrooke Street West.
