Summary/Abstract: The rapid developments in machine translation in recent years have significantly affected the field of translation. The new methods applied have led to significant improvements in the quality of translation. At the same time, machine translation started to be used in different applications and in different ways, especially on social networks. This situation has made machine translation an area in which large companies are focusing and making significant investments, and as a result, it has increased the market share of machine translation in the sector, and it has made it popular by allowing ordinary people to take an interest in machine translation. Despite this, there is discussion as to how these developments can be reflected in the translator training curriculum and in machine translation. This study focuses on the place of machine translation in Teaching Translation and examines how these systems can be reflected in the Teaching Translation curriculum.
