We support doctoral projects in translation interfacing with French, Italian, German, Spanish, and Arabic languages and cultures.

the relationship between translation and publishing in a variety of national domains. Our students explore the rich holdings of our world-leading Special Collections and the Archive of British Publishers and Printing. Our students contribute to the research activities of the Centre for Book Cultures and Publishing.
the application of textual, linguistic, and discourse analysis approaches to translation across different genres, modes, domains, and media.
To be accepted onto a research degree programme, you will need to have obtained a strong merit grade (equivalent to 65% or above on a UK programme for both the coursework and the dissertation) on a master's degree in a relevant field, but applicants with other qualifications may be accepted in certain circumstances.
