About the American Sign Language (ASL) / English Interpreting Program
The
American Sign Language (ASL) / English Interpreting concentration is designed for those students
seeking advanced preparation as sign language interpreters. The
University of North Florida's interpreting programs are committed to
upholding the National Interpreter Educational Standards as formulated
by the Conference of Interpreter Trainers. The new master's degree
concentration is offered in a distance-friendly modality with online,
three weekend-per-semester/online, and a five day summer session/online
formats to accommodate students who do not live in northeast Florida.
The program is developed in accord with current spoken and signed
language research and target interpreters who aspire to become
nationally certified.
