The Khazar University Translation
Studies Center (TSC) was established in April 27, 2000. The main objective
of this Center is to translate the academic, fiction, philosophical
and technical works published in various modern languages into Azerbaijani.
Some examples of the spiritual treasure of Azerbaijan culture are
being translated into various languages, as well. The Center is involved
in research and teaching of translation as subject fields.
The Center attracts experienced professionals as well as young
specialists to its activities, and holds theoretical and practical
conferences and symposiums on various issues concerning translation.
The Center also organizes discussion sessions on Lexicology, Literary
Translation, Translation of Poetry, Theories and Techniques of Translation,
etc.
Recently, Khazar TSC, in affiliation with Khazar University Press
completed a Translation Project partially funded by the government
of the United States. This project includes translation of books
in History, Journalism and Mass Media published in the US from English
to Azerbaijani. The TSC closely cooperates with other academic departments
and research centers of the University.
