Research methodologies in Translation or Interpreting Studies

My recent experience training on research methodologies in translation and interpreting studies with the Universite de Geneve ( School of Translation & Interpreting) has been an outstanding experience. It allowed me to cross check and update my knowledge in the field and eventually planning the designing of a course for graduates and undergraduates specifically on Translation/Interpreting research methodologies at my university. Hopefully, next year!.

Let us now regulate the predominant transfer of other research patterns from neighboring disciplines ( Linguistics, Applied linguistics, Literature). Faculty involved in research methods/methodologies should update their approaches ( not easy a task in humanities) and adopt a discipline specific paradigm. The need to align with international standards is crucial, although in emerging contexts of translation and interpreting studies.
