Abstract
This paper has two parts. First, it provides a profile of British students when they join the undergraduate course in Interpreting and Translation at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, where interpreting and translating are studied from first year. Second, it describes the training provided for translators in the department. Discourse analysis is considered to offer the most practical, and successful, pedagogics, which can be shared by translating and interpreting.
