Center for Translation Studies Gift Fund
Your gift to the Center for Translation Studies Gift Fund will allow the Center to fulfill its essential missions — to provide support for students and to promote the visibility of the literary translator through translation workshops, world literature courses, scholarly publications, conferences and symposia.
The Fund also seeks to support community-based endeavors to increase the Center’s visibility and expand the field of Translation Studies into wider consciousness.
The Center for Translation Studies Gift Fund relies on the generous donations of UT Dallas alumni and Center patrons to create these opportunities and strives to give back to the community that enthusiastically supports us. Please consider making a contribution to the fund online.
The Center for Translation Studies welcomes contributions of all sizes and in several forms, including cash, appreciated securities, credit card, payroll deduction and in-kind gifts.

Success Stories
“I decided to pursue my PhD at The University of Texas at Dallas specifically because of the Center for Translation Studies. Through the Center, I studied under leading literary translators and expert scholars of Latin American literature. The faculty and staff provided me with tremendous support as I worked toward my degree. In fact, I would not have earned my PhD were it not for the Center for Translation Studies.”
Joseph Brockway, alumnus
“I’m a fellow of the Center for Translation Studies because, as an academic institute, it focuses as much on practice as theory. This focus allows practicing translators not only a voice in the study of translation as an art and craft of human interaction, but also a place to confer and advocate for their collective interests and the general interest in their continued economic survival and flourishing. In a world built around the vagaries of commerce, the Center positions translation as vital, viable and ultimately indispensable — no small feat for a profession historically left in the shadows but hardly ever to its own devices.”
