Content
This course sets out to simulate the realistic conditions of a translation project. Students will have to tackle the various steps of a Russian-into-French translation project with professionalism, from order to delivery (i.e. administrative tasks, documentary and terminological research, translation, revision, post-editing).
Students will be asked to translate one or several texts dealing with the two specialized translation fields selected at the start of the academic year, among economic translation, legal translation and scientific/technical translation. Students can mix fields as they wish in their two C languages.
The different tasks will be carried out in the computer lab, meeting specific deadlines and relying on CAT tools when appropriate.
If need be, the student may be asked to do a preliminary work according to the instructions given by the teacher via the e-learning platform.

Evaluation methods
- Over the course of the term the term: formative assessment of the student's work.
- January and August/September sessions: written examination (4 hours per specialized translation field) in the working conditions of a professional translator鈥檚 workstation.
In accordance with the specific goals of each specialized translation examination, access to certain resources may be restricted ot blocked. In need be, these restrictions will be explicitly formulated in the task description published on Moodle.
The use of MT (machine translation) is strictly forbidden in any translation exercise or examination work, unless explicitly specified otherwise - where applicable - in the specific context of a post-editing exercise proposed by the teacher for teaching purposes. Similarly, the use of any software or application based on AI (artificial intelligence), such as ChatGPT, is strictly forbidden in writing and editing exercises.
In any case, a paper to be presented or submitted as part of the course or examination session will be a personal work that reflects the student's personal skills. Unless explicitly specified otherwise, the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and machine translation (MT) is strictly prohibited. Any use of AI in the frame of tasks in which AI is explicitely forbidden will be automatically considered a case of cheating.
鲍苍濒别蝉蝉听explicitly听specified otherwise, the use of machine translation software or generative artificial intelligence (AI) is STRICTLY prohibited, whether in the context of practical exercises or examinations. In any case, generative artificial intelligences (AI) must be used responsibly and in accordance with the practices of academic and scientific integrity and the specifications of the exercise or examination. Scientific integrity meaning always citing all sources used, the use of AI must be mentionned in all instances.听In any case, all sources used will be appropriately cited and referenced.
Any irregularity, such as the use of machine translation (MT) programs, the writing of a paper by third parties or with the help of an AI, plagiarism, cheating by exchanging information between students or attempting to exchange information with outsiders, etc. will be penalized in accordance with the University General Study and Examination Regulations (RGEE).
- The overall mark will be calculated by averaging the two marks.
In case of an unjustified absence in one of the two parts of the examination, the student will have to retake both during the August/September exam session.
