Scholarship / Doctoral Degree for AAS 2021 [5]

using the knowledge, skills, and connections from scholarship

Give up to 3 practical examples of how you intend to use the knowledge, skills, and connections you will gain from your scholarship. Possible tasks can be personal and/or professional. Really need anyone to review my essay. Thank you.

Firstly, I would use my knowledge I gain from the experience I have on my doctoral degree to improve my translation skills and to share what I gain to my students and everyone who would like to know about translation, either as foundation to start their own translation project or just learn translation.

Secondly, I would like to create a learning atmosphere and learning habit to my students, including reading habits that I certainly will experience abroad that will not usual be applied in Indonesian educational system. In this learning atmosphere, everyone is equal and lecturer is not the one who is considered the best person who knows everything. It should be an equal role between students and lecturer as lecturer is the one who directs students to improve their skills.

Thirdly, with the connection I will make during the program, I would like to share what I will gain next from other professionals in translation studies to anyone interested to translations, so that it will give better impacts to translation studies in Indonesia, mostly in my hometown. With international experts in this field, it surely give a different perspective to the translation field and to prepare anyone in this field to compete healthily and be better in the future.
