Assistant Professor – Faculty of Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University Department of Translation, Interpreting and Intercultural Studies The Department was first established as the “Translation Programme” in 1990, and was awarded full independent departmental status in 2019. During our 30-year history, we have built a reputation as one of the leading centres in the region for teaching and research in Translation, Interpreting and Intercultural Studies. The Department offers teaching at BA, MA and Research Postgraduate levels, and is among the most internationalized in the region, with an academic staff comprising members from Hong Kong, the Chinese Mainland, Taiwan, Spain, the UK and Australia. The Programme has particular strengths in literary translation, minority cultures in translation, and interpreting, and is also expanding its profile in the field of translation technology. The Department is now seeking applicants for the above positions. Applicants from all areas of the discipline will be considered. Preference will be given to those with expertise in at least one of the following clusters: (i) translation theory; (ii) translation technology, translation‑related applications of big data, and localization; (iii) interpreting studies; and (iv) intercultural studies, preferably with interests in minority cultures. Given the Chinese/English orientation of the majority of the Department’s course offerings, a command of Chinese is expected. Appointees will undertake undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, and will be expected to play an active role in research and publication. They will also be responsible for supervision of undergraduate honours projects and postgraduate dissertations at the Master’s and Doctoral levels. Appointees are also expected to take on administrative duties. Applicants should possess a PhD in Translation, Interpreting, Intercultural Studies or other relevant fields, have an appropriate research and publication record, and teaching experience at the tertiary level.
