The International Doctorate in Translation Studies (ID-TS) is a worldwide network of doctoral Translation Studies programs and doctoral programs that include a Translation Studies component.[1]

## History

[edit]

The International Doctorate in Translation Studies was initiated by the European Society for Translation Studies (EST) and organized by the TS-Doc working group[2] and the ID-TS committee.[3]

It was officially launched in Vienna on September 19, 2017.

## Aims

[edit]

The International Doctorate in Translation Studies seeks to promote doctoral programs all over the world based on the conviction that they are a major means of advancing scholarship in the discipline. Translation research is regarded as a broad field encompassing translation, interpreting, audiovisual translation, localization and adaptation.[4]

The network's agenda appears on its Foundation Document. The document outlines the objectives of a doctoral program in Translation Studies and the activities required so that students in these programs can acquire the necessary competences. Its aims include the following: promoting the cooperation between existing doctoral programs; developing a database of online course materials such as model syllabi, presentations and video lectures; providing training for supervisors; compiling a list of translation scholars willing to supervise and co-supervise PhDs in their fields of expertise; facilitating joint doctorates, especially those involving different countries; assisting students whose research work necessitates travelling to other countries; organizing ID-TS students' conferences; tightening the collaboration with the industry and governmental and non-governmental institutions; raising external funding for the activities of the network. [4]
