Prospects for the teaching of translation majors in the new era

| Shaanxi Normal University
Since entering the new era, the translation model has gradually changed with the widespread application of machine translation technology and the rapid development of a translation industry. The mismatch between the demand of employers and the talents trained by universities has become a major problem facing the translation major nowadays. To this end, we should attach more importance to the readjustment of the existent curriculum; students’ practical ability in translation; grasp of the skill of detecting and correcting machine translation errors; combination of translation and relevant professional knowledge.
