About Monterey Model Courses
The Monterey Model course leverages the presence of the first class Translation and Interpretation program at the Monterey Institute to enrich the learning experience of students in other courses. Multiple courses, taught in different languages study the same topic. At the end of the semester, the classes come together, and present to one another in their own languages of study, the presentations are simultaneously interpreted for the audience by interpretation students.
A Collaboration between the Graduate School of Translation and Interpretation,
the Chinese Studies Program, and the Spanish Studies Program.
