Project Details
Description
The creation of a certificate program in translation and interpretation, and the development of its curricular, service-learning, and language-documentation components.The Lives in Translation (LiT) program, which is housed within the Department of Spanish and Portuguese Studies at Rutgers University-Newark, where we embrace our role as an anchor institution in our diverse social milieu as central to our identity, is proposing a three-year humanities initiative to (1) expand curricular offerings in translation, interpreting, and multilingualism, (2) to provide language services in a multitude of languages to our Limited English Proficiency members of our community, including indigenous and endangered languages, and (3) to support innovative teaching and learning of language documentation of multilinguals. Through this proposal, Lives in Translation's vision is to cultivate the linguistic richness of our Rutgers-Newark campus by making languages a cornerstone of educational opportunities and providing deeper knowledge and understanding of global cultures as an integral part of our academic capacity.
