Bridging Programme
Dutch-taught Master of Translation
2025-2026
Based on this application a personal and individual programme is put together using the courses listed below.
For the bridging programmes, students are expected to have completed a prior degree with one or two foreign languages. They consist - depending on previously obtained qualifications and the chosen major of the future master's programme - of 36 to 84 ECTS-credits.
Students with a degree from the Maastricht Translation Academy are eligible for a bridging programme that differs from the standard programme and comprises a maximum of 39 credits.
Students wishing to progress to the Master in Translation: Dutch and Two Foreign Languages choose two
language modules (B+B or B+C) with which they wish to continue later.
Students wishing to progress to the Master in Translation: Dutch with one foreign language and the
Accessible Media and Communication specialisation choose one language module (B or C) with which they wish to continue later.
B-languages: German, English, French
C-languages: Chinese, Italian, Spanish
Please note: The organisation aims to minimise overlap between courses in its planning of this programme, but it is impossible to guarantee a timetable without some overlap.

German
Students transferring from a professional bachelor's programme with German choose one course from the second part of the model path of the Bachelor of Applied Linguistics and take all courses from the third part of the model path except for Interpreting skills.
If the student has taken a professional bachelor's programme with only one foreign language, and wishes to supplement the bridging programme with German, they take the entire track for the missing foreign language (all courses of the foreign language from the three parts of the Applied Linguistics Bachelor's model path). The bridging programme then comprises a maximum of 84 credits. The student can skip the language-related courses from the first part of the model path (18 credits) on condition that they pass an (oral and written) language test, which tests whether the final competences of BA1 have been acquired.
