Call For Papers

Origin:

The International Symposium on Translation and Interpretation Teaching was initiated by the Taiwan Association of Translation and Interpretation in 1997. Every year, universities with a department or graduate institute of translation and interpretation in Taiwan take turns hosting the event. Over time, the Symposium has grown into an important occasion for translators, interpreters, and scholars at home and abroad to publish papers and exchange views.



The upcoming 2023 symposium will be the 27th International Symposium on Translation and Interpreting Teaching. Over the past two decades, the overall training system in this field in Taiwan has become better. Since the establishment of the first graduate institute of translation and interpretation by Fu Jen Catholic University in 1988, Taiwan is now home to seven graduate institutes and programs of translation and interpretation, and two undergraduate departments of translation and interpretation; moreover, numerous universities have offered translation and interpretation courses.



The Symposium has always been focusing on the latest and trending studies and teaching methods, from themes in the nascent stage such as course design, practical-oriented teaching, the idea of faithfulness, expressiveness, and elegance, and cross-cultural communication to the themes that have come into the limelight in recent years such as translators and interpreters’ role, knowledge management, and the looming impact brought by technology and machine translation.



The 27th International Symposium on Translation and Interpreting Teaching will be hosted by the Graduate Institute of Translation and Interpretation at National Changhua University of Education on May 6, 2023. The theme is “Translators and Interpreters in the Era of Artificial Intelligence: Reconsidering the Profession and its Training Models”.



This time the Symposium features two keynote speakers: Prof. David Sawyer of the University of Maryland and Prof. Jiun Huh of Ewha Womans University. Prof. David Sawyer is an expert in curriculum design and assessment of translation and interpretation performance. Prof. Jiun Huh has published multiple papers related to the training of translators and interpreters.
