Maybe of interest to some readers of this blog:
I saw on the European Society for Translation Studies Facebook page that a Lisbon- and New Mexico Tech-based research project, VISTAC (Visualising Science and Technology Across Cultures), is seeking co-researchers to look at STEM visuals in translation. They want to disseminate a survey in the main internet languages and are particularly interested in hearing from researchers who speak Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian or Spanish.
The last thing I read on this topic was a fascinating article by Liangyu Fu entitled 'Indigenizing visualized knowledge: translating Western science illustrations in China, 1870-1910' which is currently free to read on the Translation Studies website. But it would be great to read something more up to date too!

translation placements and jobs
Just arrived on our desk: the German LSP transcultura is looking for a project manager/translator working out of German into English, Spanish or Italian.
And a few more placement opportunities:
MO Group International is advertising internship opportunities to translation students looking for work experience in translation, proofreading and localisation. German, French or Dutch native speakers preferred. The expiry date for this round is 12 June.
Thinking about a future specialism in financial translation? The European Central Bank sometimes advertises translation internships. Deutsche Bank also has a placement scheme for English or German speakers working out of German and English, respectively. Contact Eva Hillesheim at +49 (069) 910-38839.
An internship (minimum length 5 months) with some living expenses paid is being advertised in Beijing for a new or imminent graduate translating from English into French, Italian, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, or Traditional Chinese.
Readers in Ireland might like to keep an eye on the European Movement internship site, which sometimes advertises translation internships in Brussels and elsewhere.

More experienced translators might like to keep an eye on the job listing on the AIIC website and the UNjobs site. The World Intellectual Property Organisation in Geneva is advertising for a translator from English and French into Arabic (deadline 15 June).

freelance and other job links
Thought some of the following may be of interest. The Metropolitan Police are advertising for freelance translators with English and one or more of: Bengali, Cantonese, Danish, Estonian, Georgian, Gujarati, Korean, Norwegian, Punjabi, Slovak, Slovene, Swedish, Tamil and Thai. For translators who already have some experience; do read the requirements carefully. There's a useful-looking job page at the Polyglot Blog which might be worth keeping an eye on. For jobs in North America see this page. See the jobs tag on this blog for further ideas.

call for freelance translators
Hello all!
Where did the sun go?!? Oh well. Have just received this email via a colleague which may be of interest to some of you.
Good morning,
I am writing to let you know that we are currently recruiting freelance translators at Orb Translations. We are very keen to work with translators at an early stage in their career as we understand how difficult it can be to start out as a freelancer therefore I would be grateful if you could pass this message on to your MA Translation students who may be interested in applying.
We are currently looking to recruit for all language combinations but are particularly interested in Arabic, Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), Danish, Dutch, Greek, Korean, Portuguese and Urdu. I have attached an application form which can be returned directly to me at this email address or there is also an online application form on the website (http://www.orbtranslations.com/form.htm). Obviously as your students will just be starting out, they do not need to worry too much about giving 2 referees.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Kind regards,
Louise Clegg
