UA Translation & Interpretation Student Association

UA Translation & Interpretation Student Association As a recognized student organization, our goals are:

1. To serve the greater Tucson community with T&I services.

ENGLISH SPANISH | We are the University of Arizona's first Translation and Interpretation student organization, serving the UA Translation and Interpretation Program students and the greater Tucson community. The Translation and Interpretation Student Association at the University of Arizona (UA-TISA or TISA for short) is the T&I student organization at the University of Arizona. The idea for

this group was born in the fall of 2012 and came into fruition between December 2012 and January 2013 when a few students came together as the founding members of TISA. Starting in the Spring of 2013, TISA will become an officially recognized student organization by the Associated Students at the University of Arizona (ASUA), the UA's official student government. To serve the T&I student population and help them succeed in their endeavors to become competent translators/interpreters by providing them with the necessary tools for success. These include: practice sessions and weekly meetings, internships or paid assignments and volunteer opportunities, student created glossaries, book-loaning services, and, when and if possible, assistance in paying for the fees to become certified interpreters and translators.

2. To serve the general student body/organizations and university faculty and staff with translation and interpretation services.

3. As a diverse, multicultural student organization with various experience levels and language fluency , we are able to provide great T&I services with a wide range of foci, including medical and legal translation and some interpretation.
