The aim of this paper is to present the curricular characteristics of the Grado en Traducción e Interpretación at the University of Salamanca, Spain, and to discuss their relationship, primarily with the subcomponents of Translation Competence as defined by José Luiz Vila Real Gonçalves. It provides a brief history of the course, examines the context of the Higher Education Institution (HEI) that offers it, the desired graduate profile, and explores the course's social integration within the surrounding community, as well as the employability prospects for USAL graduates, based on documents made available by the institution on its website. This analysis seeks to identify the specificities of translator and interpreter training at one of the oldest institutions in Europe.
