I'm watching The big bang theory. Sheldon didn't want to do an interview about his research but her girlfriend encouraged him and said:

I know you don’t like it, but every time you do an interview, it raises the profile of the university. That translates to funding.

Are both "to" and "into" acceptable in the above sentence?
 
Yes, both are acceptable though "into" is preferred.

You must capitalise titles correctly.
If you struggle with "his" and "her", double-check each time you use them!
