Scholars and Translators from the Colleges

The Translation Center collaborates with faculty across the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the Five Colleges. Many faculty either translate literary or scholarly texts or publish about translation phenomena. The same faculty usually offer academic courses on translation. On occassion, faculty members from the nearby colleges serve on graduate student examination, thesis, and dissertation committees at UMASS.
