Introduction
MPhil/Phd Translation
We offer MPhil and PhD research programmes in English (including American Literature and literary theory), World Literature, Comparative Literature, Linguistics, Translation, and Creative Writing, for full or part-time study.
The MPhil/PhD Translation is a rigorous, structured interdisciplinary translation researcher training programme, which aims to enable students to acquire a solid understanding of Translation Studies scholarship, history, discourses, trends and debates, and to support students in the production of original work within this context. ‘Translation Studies’ (TS) is taken in a broad sense, and embraces research on written translation, interpreting, audiovisual translation, localization, and adaptation, among other areas.
As part of the programme, students will engage with a range of historical and contemporary resources and scholarship in TS, and learn to appropriate conceptual frameworks and methodologies, both from TS, and from a range of cognate disciplines, and to apply these to their own original work. Students will contribute to the development of the discipline, and the promotion of translation beyond the academy, by advancing their work for dissemination through conferences, symposia, and industry events, peer-reviewed publications and online forums.
