Translation and Terminology Universidade de Aveiro

Overview

Join the Doctoral degree of  Translation and Terminology from Universidade de Aveiro . In response to the emergence of new professional profiles, the program integrates key domains such as Specialised Translation, Terminology, and Technical Communication, supporting the development of innovative projects with potential impact on organisations and the educational sector. It promotes a systematic understanding of the processes and products of translation studies and terminology, as well as other areas of application that intersect with these and present new challenges, while encouraging interdisciplinary approaches.

The PDTT contributes to the development of advanced knowledge in broader theoretical and methodological perspectives, such as Machine Translation, revision of technical-scientific texts, and pre- and post-editing. It also promotes the capacity to carry out research and foster discussion on challenges and results at national and international forums, thereby contributing to the ongoing development of these study domains and reinforcing their social responsibility.

Professional outcomes

This programme enables professionals to work in the production of scholarship and in professional settings (in the fields where translation and terminology are applied; scientific and technological institutions, businesses, education, etc.).

The training this programme provides will be increasingly sought after considering that businesses and other organizations identify increasing need to respond to multilingual communication and face a vast array of challenges in the creation, management and updating of terminology and documentation, in general.

The advanced training provided by this course will thus represent an asset for all those who address these needs, both nationally and internationally, in public and private entities, as there are still scarce human resources with advanced professional end research competencies in these areas.
