How Does Internship Enhance Translation Skills of English-Turkish Translation and Interpreting Students?

Öz

This study aims to examine how English-Turkish translation and interpreting students improve their translation skills through the internship program. The research was carried out using an open-ended questionnaire with the 3rd and 4th year translation students who completed their internship at various workplaces. The findings showed that the internship was beneficial to improve students’ translation competencies. In addition, the reasons for participation in compulsory internship programs range from lifelong passions for language learning and language use to coincidental changes in career objectives; individual insights are provided by self-perceived success and critical views on translation skills. Furthermore, the study revealed that the duration of the internship also plays a crucial role in the overall enhancement of translation skills. Mentorship and feedback during the internship were found to be key factors contributing to the students' professional growth. The results shed light on the importance of participating in an internship program and arranging a suitable workplace for students who want/have to do an internship.
