The Bachelor of Arts degree in Modern Languages (Korean) with a concentration in Localization and Translation combines language, culture, and technology to prepare students for work in the language services industry. Localization translates and adapts language, texts, products, software, and websites to a target culture. Students work with an international software partner to build machine translation (MT) engines and test their engines against international translation products. Students learn in a collaborative work environment with hands-on training in computer-assisted translation, focusing on concepts of "big language data" collection and processing, as well as MT engine tuning across multiple languages and domains. Students also build AI models using these same language data for natural language understanding. The substantive program provides training in key skills for future employment tasks, for ultimate career preparedness.
