Research

Based on his/her specialties, the recruited teacher-researcher will be able to join an Inalco team of his/her choice, including:

The recruited colleague will be expected to work within the research axes:

• of the CERMOM (Centre de recherches Moyen-Orient Méditerranée) host team: axe 4.1 didactics and digital pedagogy (Mooc, platforms and tools) and axis 1.1 (translations, transfers and adaptations),

• or in the PLIDAM host team (Pluralité des Langues et des Identités : Didactique, Acquisition, Médiations): axe 3 (lexique et traduction : quelle didactique ?), which requires proven pedagogical experience and reflection on the challenges of specialized translation in teaching Arabic to a French-speaking audience.

He/she will be actively involved in national and international research networks, building on the links already forged with universities and research centers in the Arab world. The person recruited will also strengthen the research supervision offer, through active participation in Master's and PhD training, contributing to the theoretical and methodological deepening of research in specialized translation.

• The CERMOM very strongly supports this job application. The recruited colleague will strengthen the team of researchers in literary and specialized translation. His or her work will be fully integrated into the "concepts and representations" and "translations, transfers, adaptation" axes. The opinion is therefore very favorable.
