Не пишите аспирантура - в США graduate schools для получения степени магистра и для программы PhD. Удачный перевод зависит от текста - какое именно образование имеют в виду.
Angela Greenfield Nov 20, 2009:
Oxana, Я пятой точкой чувствую, что три ваших направления - это медицина, юриспруденция и бизнес. Поэтому я так бы и писала, 16 направлений аспирантуры плюс высшие школы медицины, юриспруденции и бизнеса. К сожалению, другой версии у меня нет и перевода тоже. :-((
Viachaslau Nov 19, 2009:
ну тогда придется объяснять заморочки американской системы (в самом тексте, или в неуклюжих сносках). Не настаиваю, извольте, сетую на когнитивные ловушки, так часто попадающиеся на жизненном пути бедолаг-переводчиков. :-)
Oxana Salazar (X) (asker) Nov 19, 2009:
Русский перевод Объединять мне бы не хотелось, т.к. в тексте ясно 16 и 3. Хотелось бы найти удачный русский перевод

Предлагаю объединить, написать 19 программ постдипломного образования

A graduate school is a school that awards advanced academic degrees with the general requirement that students must have earned a previous undergraduate (bachelor's) degree. Many universities award graduate degrees; a graduate school is not necessarily a separate institution. The term "graduate school" is primarily North American. Additionally, in North America, the term does not usually refer to medical school (whose students are called "medical students"), and only occasionally refers to law school or business school. (The latter types of programs are often collectively termed professional schools).

thank you, andress.
agree Mikhail Kropotov : It's definitely Law and Medicine, but I suspect Business is not one of them. Engineering would be my bet.
