Dorota Goluch
I studied English philology and translation studies at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow (magister in 2008), postcolonial literature at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich (exchange year) and postcolonial studies at the University of Kent (MA in 2009). After that, I completed an AHRC-funded project on the Polish reception of translated postcolonial literature at University College London, where I worked under the guidance of Professor Theo Hermans and Dr Katarzyna Zechenter (PhD, 2013).
During my PhD study I worked as a postgraduate research assistant at UCL, a tutor at the University of Leicester and an administrator of the Translation Research Summer School. I have also been involved in the work of academic associations: I acted as a postgraduate representative of the British Comparative Literature Association (2010–2013) and a web officer of the Postcolonial Studies Association (2011–2014). In 2014 I joined the publications committee of Legenda as a secretary.
Alongside my academic work I gained experience in translating popular literature, localization and teaching English as a foreign language.
I joined Cardiff as a lecturer in translation studies in 2013.
