The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Foundation has signed cooperation

agreements with the American University in Sharjah, the Algiers-based High Institute

for Translation and the Jordanian University in Amman to offer scholarships to

professional Arab translators to receive Master’s degrees in translation. Other leading

regional institutes and universities are expected to join the program soon. The new

initiative is part of the “Turjuman” program which aims to boost the translation

industry across the Arab World. Applicants to the Foundation’s Master’s

program are required to be professional translators of Arab nationality with

substantial years of experience in the field.
