PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

The department launched this non-profit operation in 2005. It allows graduate students to design and deliver professional workshops for businesses, do technical or literary translations or record scripts for a fee. The department supervises the students’ work and the operation, reserving a small percentage of the revenues to sponsor graduate students attending regional or national conferences. The program trains our graduate students professionally while providing a service to the university and the Lexington community.

WORKSHOPS

Every fall semester graduate students attend an interrelated series of workshops designed by our faculty to prepare our candidates going on the job market. Several faculty members help with CV writing, application materials, and the MLA practice interviews.
