Overview

The School of Modern Languages has particular research strengths in translation studies. Fields of research interest include: audiovisual translation; translation technologies (especially machine translation); media accessibility; translation history; literary translation (including poetry, drama, fiction, practice-oriented research); adaptation studies; and the ways in which translation is used and perceived by institutions and by civil society.

Key facts

The School's translation activities benefit from extensive collaborations with outside institutions and networks, including the Institute of Translation and Interpreting (ITI), the Chartered Institute of Linguists and the Association of Programmes in Translation and Interpreting Studies (APTIS).

The Penguin Archive and the Theatre Collection, housed at the University, offer important resources for research in translation publishing and performance.

The School also owns a Tobii eye tracker and a copy of iMotions software, which we use for data analysis in screen studies and translation process research.

University of Bristol 's Translation programme will teach you more about this topic.
