Professional scientific translations

Accredited experts for your scientific translations

Academic texts are generally published for a readership that consists of scholars from other countries who are familiar with the terminology used and the topics addressed. This means that, when translating these texts, exceptional accuracy is essential. tolingo is a certified translation agency with more than ten years of experience in academic translation. The expertise that we’ve gained over many years of experience with our clients is precisely what a dependable translation partner should have.

Challenges of academic texts

Specialist translations of academic findings are the backbone of international dialogue between scholars. Academic texts are usually published and later cited and discussed. Comprehensibility, accuracy for the relevant field and use of the appropriate style are therefore basic requirements for academic translations. Terminology within the subject and formal considerations are likewise crucial – not to mention the fact that the target group for the text must be taken into account. Whether that means a readership of experts or interested laypeople, tolingo’s translations always strike the right tone.

We consider ourselves a partner in your research

In order to ensure the quality of our translations, tolingo works exclusively with verified professional translators who have either studied or gained many years of professional experience in the relevant field for your source text. This allows us to make sure that our more than 6,000 native-speaker translations possess both the necessary linguistic competence and essential background knowledge for the job, because it is tolingo’s belief that only university-educated translators can properly translate your academic text. With us, your scholarly findings will achieve international success.
Our range of services for academic writing

The services we offer for academic translations covers every possible field, from musicology and art history to economics and engineering. Every subject area has its own clear standards regarding both content and form; our translators always take these into account. We can offer you custom quotations for translation and editing – no matter the subject category or content type. Here are some examples of the types of content we would love to translate for you:

Bachelor’s and Master’s theses, final papers, Diplom and Magister theses, research papers and research contracts, dissertations, academic articles, abstracts, academic publications, lectures and book translations
Specialist translations in every academic language in the world

We can translate your specialist text into any relevant academic language so that you can share your findings with scholars in your field around the world. As has long been the case, the most frequently requested target language is English. However, globalisation is accompanied by growing demand for foreign languages that are less common in Germany, such as Arabic and Farsi. If you have your texts translated professionally by tolingo, you’ll be able to reach a much broader target group. Help drive international academic development forward and enhance your reputation as a scholar at the same time.
