The Frankfurt Translation Prize for German Studies

The Prize is awarded to the student who has demonstrated both excellence in the final year translation exam and an interest in future translation work. It was founded by Warwick graduates Jeremy Gaines (PhD German Studies, 1980-86) and Paul Keast (BA German Studies, 1976-80 and MA German Studies, 1980-85). The prize includes work experience in Jeremy Gaines's Frankfurt-based translation company.
