This study focuses on the rationale of incorporating CAT technology into translation curriculum with the view to improving students’ hands-on experience and preparedness for real-world practice. To that end, the study employs a concurrent mixed-method research design that incorporates a survey and interviews to measure the effect of CAT tools on the translation performance and interest of students from Universitas Gunadarma’s English Department. The target population was selected by employing a stration of random sampling method in order to ensure a good sample of Undergraduate students. The quantitative data involved pre- and post-tests on the subjects that translated the texts in order to determine the accuracy, consistency and efficiency of the translations. The studies also used t-tests and analysis of variance (ANOVA) to help the investigators establish the level of significance of the changes reported. The quantitative data were collected from survey forms while the qualitative data from the set interviews and focus group discussion sessions with the students and instructors of CAT technology program. The method of thematic analysis was applied to categorical text data to reveal specific thematic patterns. The results reveal a 25% enhancement in the translation quality of students and 30% enhancement in consistency and 20% enhancement in efficiency while using CAT tools as opposed to other conventional techniques. Quantative results include t-tests and ANOVA’s which upheld the significance of such enhancements with regard to CAT technology. In both students and instructors’ own words, finding and using CAT tools was described as helping them to foster independence and build community. Due to these findings, students expressed satisfaction levels because CAT tools enhance the efficiency, quality, and ease of translations hence making the whole process enjoyable. Some of the hitches that were gleaned to have affected the smooth implementation of the system included the initial learning process and mechanical breakdowns; however, the reception that was received was almost overwhelmingly positive. The findings revealed that all the studied aspects showed high levels of satisfaction, and 90% of the students claimed to be more prepared for professional translation work. In light of the findings, the CAT technology and the training of translation personnel which should be upgraded with coherent investment were emphasized.
