Share this course Share " I am a second year PhD student in Translation, from China. There is so much on offer here, as well as opportunities to travel. In my first year I’ve been encouraged to speak at two conferences, inside and outside the UK. I have also benefited from a scholarship to fund a research trip to Germany. I’m confident that all these opportunities for training, conferences and study visits will give me an added edge in the employment market, both in the academic world and the creative industries."
