Trinity College Dublin has awarded a Short Term Visiting Research Fellowship to Dr. Christine Monikowski, Professor in the Department of ASL and Interpreting Education. This Fellowship is at the university’s Arts and Humanities Research Institute, the Trinity Long Room Hub, for June 11 – 25, 2016.
The Visiting Research Fellowship program is a competitive
program offered each year and recipients must support one of the strategic aims
of the Trinity Long Room Hub. During her Fellowship, Dr. Monikowski will
collaborate with the Trinity Centre for Deaf Studies on the development of an
international approach to sign language linguistics and also to begin
documenting interpreter education programs in Europe, creating an online survey
of known programs as well as discussion with the community of experts (from the
European Forum of Sign Language Interpreters, EFSLI).
Trinity College Dublin was created by royal charter in 1592
and is Ireland’s highest ranked universities – and one of the world’s top 100. The
Trinity Long Room Hub is the Arts and Humanities Research Institute and takes
its name from the Old Library’s iconic “Long Room” (built between 1712 and
1732). It is also home to the Book of Kells, considered the world’s most famous
medieval manuscript and Ireland’s greatest cultural treasure, a 9th
century richly decorated copy of the four Gospels. More information on the current
and past Fellowships can be found at: http://www.tcd.ie/trinitylongroomhub/fellowships/
