Mali BT—Master’s in Applied Linguistics for Bible Translation

Mali BT is a two-year program created by the UofN in partnership with Wycliffe Global Alliance (WGA) and the Institute of Biblical languages & Translation (IBLT). It prepares students to perform specialist roles in Bible translation service among minority language groups. Our graduates will have the tools to serve OBT teams and projects by providing mentorship and training. They will also be prepared to teach in the Introduction to OBT schools and to create/adapt resources and materials in multiple languages to serve the OBT movement worldwide. Mali BT is structured around four two-week, in-person, intensive blocks combined with assignments, practicums, and a capstone project.
