In 2016, the joint program of master’s degree in translation studies, between the College of Foreign Languages of Nankai University and Glasgow University of Britain, was approved by the National Ministry of Education of China.

The majority of staff of the Translation Department have doctoral degrees from prestigious domestic or overseas universities, and they are engaged in the research and teaching of translation, comparative literature, and linguistics, most of whom possess rich translation or interpreting experiences, and three of them are doctoral supervisors. The department is devoted to cultivating qualified translators and interpreters between English and Chinese, who possess an international view with profound knowledge in liberal arts.
