The Integrated PhD in Interpreting is designed to prepare students for doctoral-level study by ensuring they have an additional year to develop research skills, gain understanding of the demands of PhD study and work towards developing sound and feasible research proposals. Students embarking on the integrated Phd programme take a year of taught modules before moving on to the PhD research. The programme is suitable for all those wishing to engage in research but should appeal to those who have the basis of a research project but require additional support to develop this into a feasible PhD study. During Year 1, in addition to completing taught modules, students will also enrol on a year-long non-credit-bearing Independent Study Module. Anyone interested in exploring the integrated PhD should discuss this option with staff from the Centre for Translation and Interpreting. The Centre for Translation and Interpreting provides a vibrant environment for both disciplinary and interdisciplinary scholarship. Recognised as a centre of excellence for research into the languages, literatures, histories, linguistics, visual cultures, and cultural identities of Europe and beyond, the Centre is founded on a dynamic and forward-looking research ethos. Interpreting is a field of research that is expanding dynamically. We welcome innovative research proposals that interrogate - through either practice- or research-led projects - interpreting in a variety of areas and modes, for example: the role of the interpreter in the complex network of requirements, expectations, and perceptions; interpreter training; interpreting principles and practices; interpreting ethics; legal and social contexts for interpreting; cognitive studies of interpreting, especially with eye-tracking technology; community interpreting; court interpreting; sign language interpreting; interpreting as a profession; interpreting industry. Mode of study/duration Registration is on a full-time or part-time basis, under the direction of a supervisory team appointed by the University. You will be expected to submit your thesis at the end of three years of full-time registration for PhD, or two years for MPhil (or part-time equivalent).]
