Student testimonial: Koeun Lee
MA (2023), Korean<>English: "The program offered a flexible schedule, which was the most important for me to work and study both, and relatively manageable cost, and the faculty who had expertise in specific areas I wanted to explore … This program equipped me with theoretical insights to articulate the strengths and limitations of AI translation and the ability to effectively collaborate and communicate with colleagues who don’t understand how interpreting and translation work."
