New external supplier of translations for the Faculty of Arts

The Faculty of Arts has now finalised an agreement with a new, regular supplier of translations between Danish and English. The new supplier, GlobalDenmark, will be providing translation services for the faculty’s centres and schools.

There is great demand for translation and copyediting services at the faculty, and much of this work is already done by external suppliers. The new agreement means that in future GlobalDenmark will be the sole external supplier of translation services for the Faculty of Arts. 

Our own in-house language consultants distinguish between translation and copyediting, which basically means proofreading texts that are already written in English. Unfortunately, we don’t have the resources to translate for everyone at the faculty, but we can offer copyediting services. For instance, we are happy to copyedit research articles written in English before they are sent for publication in academic journals.

Translation services that cannot be provided by the faculty’s own translators can be purchased from GlobalDenmark. Texts from the faculty’s centres and schools should be sent direct to GlobalDenmark at au@global-denmark.dk. Please make sure that your school is aware in advance that it will have to pay for these translation services.

If you are in any doubt about what Language Services, Arts can do for you, please check the Language Services website.
