Certificate in Applied Literary Translation, USA
Dalkey Archive Press and the University of Houston-Victoria School of Arts and Sciences are delighted to invite applications for the new credit-bearing Certificate in Applied Literary Translation. The certificate will be offered in conjunction with UHV’s master’s degree programs in Creative Writing and Publishing, and will provide an intensive training experience in translation and publishing, resulting in the publication by
Dalkey Archive of the participant’s first book-length translation.
The program is designed for translators at an early stage in their careers who are ready to undertake a major translation but are still in need of experience navigating the editorial and publishing processes. Both native English speakers and non-native speakers with superior Englishlanguage skills are encouraged to apply. Translators of all languages are welcome, especially those from languages less commonly translated into English.
The certificate is offered three times a year: Fall, Spring, and Summer. The first session will be offered in the upcoming Spring term, beginning on January 19, 2016. Subsequent sessions will begin in May and August of 2016.
The deadline for applying to the upcoming session will be November 1, 2015.
