We are seeking forward-thinking scholars who possess a strong foundation in humanities research and who have (or are highly motivated to develop) an active engagement with emerging technologies.

Relevant areas of expertise reflect this synthesis of humanities and technology, and include, but are not limited to: AI and translation and interpreting technologies; audiovisual translation and multimodal translation; localization; and multilingual digital communication. 

While priority will be given to the areas listed above, applicants in all areas of translation studies who demonstrate a commitment to integrating technology and culture into their research and teaching are welcome to apply.

The appointees will be expected to (a) teach undergraduate and/or postgraduate courses; (b) develop new courses in line with their own interests; (c) supervise research postgraduate students; (d) develop independent and/or collaborative research projects; and (e) undertake administrative duties.
