Abstract: This research paper set out to examine how important it is for Nepali university students to study translation studies as part of their English literature and language studies. This study consulted data from both primary and secondary sources. Using a non-random judgmental sampling technique, the researcher purposefully chose fifty students from the Mahendra Multiple Campus, Nepalgunj, English major stream who were pursuing translation as part of their program of studies. The study gathered data using questionnaires. The findings of the study revealed that linguistic diversity negatively impacts development. However, the findings also revealed that students think translation addresses the above stated negative impact by bridging linguistic gaps. More importantly, the findings showed that students believed the course prepared them to be employed nationally and internationally. The study concluded that translation as a subject is useful at universities of Nepal.
