Humanities and Social Science PhDs with strong fluency in two languages can find satisfying work as translators. Either employed by an organization or as freelancers, PhDs translate a wide variety of documents. If you are fluent in any two languages, you can probably be a translator.

Versatile PhD will host a free AMA-style panel discussion on PhD Careers in Language Translation, Sept. 19-23, 2016. All panelists are PhDs or ABD in humanities or social science disciplines and are currently working as translators in a variety of settings.

• Free discussion, open to all (tell friends!)
• Takes place in Humanities/Social Science forum on the VPhD site
• Panelists introduce themselves Monday September 19
• Q&A rest of week thru Friday September 23
• Asynchronous - participate anytime that week
