Dear all,
the Faculty of Modern Languages at Heidelberg University invites applications for a
Professorship for
“Translation Studies“ (f/m/d)
Open rank: Tenure Track Professorship (W1 to W3) or Full Professor (W3)
to be occupied on October 1, 2025.
The Institute for Translation and Interpreting at the University of Heidelberg offers the position of professor of translation studies with a focus on
translation processes and translation workflow.
We are seeking candidates with a first independent research profile after the doctorate for the tenure track level (W1). This position will initially be limited to six years and,
following a positive tenure evaluation, will be converted to a permanent W3 full professorship. Candidates that are more qualified may be appointed directly on the full professor level.
Applicants should have a track record of empirical research into the interfaces between different processes, resources and competences of translation and
multilingual text production, such as interactions of human, computer-aided and machine translation, innovative forms of inter- and intralingual translation/communication, also in the continuum between spoken and written language (e.g. multimedia/ audiovisual
translation, speech-to-text interpreting, translation into “Leichte Sprache”/ Easy Language). Experience in conducting major research projects, success in securing external funding,
and a record of participation in academic self-governance will be advantageous.
Deadline for applications: October 31, 2024
