The course does not include curricula, but pathways, i.e. recommended curricula: Translation (literature, translation and adaptation), Didactics (language teaching, intercultural education), Media (economics of the culture industry, intersemiotic rewriting).

All pathways include the possibility of undertaking work placements, attending a Literary Theory and Cultural Studies workshop and spending a period abroad on Erasmus. The Translation and Media pathways also include the opportunity to try your hand at a translation workshop.

The Master's degree in Modern Languages and Literatures for Teaching, Publishing and Digital Media allows graduates to carry out activities with a high level of responsibility in all professional fields in which a solid humanistic culture and a secure mastery of foreign languages are required, such as publishing houses, study centres, Italian cultural institutes abroad, cultural institutions and foundations, editorial offices, including digital ones, schools (after attending special courses).

The common objective of the three pathways is to train professionals with a high level of written and oral competence in two foreign languages. The course includes common teachings in the areas of foreign languages and literatures to allow for the refinement of skills already acquired. These activities are complemented by others specific to each pathway.

• The Translation pathway provides specific skills in translation theory and techniques, textual analysis, computational linguistics and computer-assisted translation.
