Meredith Cannella
"I chose Kent State’s Translation MA program primarily because it was free with a TAship, which made it accessible while allowing me to gain professional experience alongside my studies."
Irina Anokhin
"I became a better translator, interpreter, teacher, researcher, and communicator. The program strengthened my linguistic and cultural competence, deepened my understanding of translation theory and practice, and enhanced my writing and editing skills. I also gained valuable technical skills, such as managing terminology and working with various types of digital documents, which I continue to apply in my professional work. Overall, the MCLS program provided me with a strong academic foundation and practical tools essential for success in a variety of language-related roles."
Mertcan Okul
"I chose Kent State’s MCLS Department because it is one of the few institutions in the United States that offers a dedicated PhD in Translation Studies. Beyond its unique position, the department has a particularly strong and respected faculty. In my case, Dr. Baer’s research areas align closely with my own interests, and his influential contributions to Translation Studies played an important role in my decision. Knowing that I would have the opportunity to work within such a well-established academic environment made the MCLS Department the ideal choice for me."
