So that we deliver an academic translation that results in a publication, we are in constant contact with the author to ask them about the vocabulary and language they prefer in the target language.

An academic translation is extremely difficult. It requires that the translator has a high level of technical knowledge, as well as the ability to use academic language appropriately. It is undoubtedly the translation sector with the highest number of conflicts, scams and dissatisfied clients. We take advantage of our experience, knowledge and passion for all things academic to provide the best academic translation service in Colombia.

At ONG Traducciones, we are translators, but we are also researchers with publications in indexed journals. We have presented papers at international conferences and are members of research groups. Our theses have received mentions of honor. We are part of the academic world because we are passionate about the production of knowledge and its transmission to scientific communities and the general public.

All of this means that we are the best choice to translate your scientific article. We are aware of the requirements of the indexed journals where you want to publish the results of your research: technical precision, formal language, logical progression in the article and a clearly written text. We also transform certain structural aspects of the Spanish language to make it more impactful in English. For example, we split sentences that go for a whole paragraph so that there are several short sentences in English. These convey the same message but in a way that is easier to understand.

In order to achieve an academic translation that results in a publication, we maintain excellent communication with the author in order so that we can ask detailed questions about the terms used and their best translation into the target language.

When the Journal’s corrections arrive, we are available to make the requested changes and contribute to the article reaching its intended destination – publication.

We have translated scientific articles and academic book chapters for the following universities abroad and in Colombia: Yale University, University of Western Sydney, Universidad de los Andes, Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Universidad de la Sabana, Universidad del Norte, Universidad de Manizales, Universidad del Tolima and Universidad de la Salle.

Below is a list of some of the scientific articles and book chapters that we have translated into English and have been published in journals and books.
