The Spanish city of Granada is hosting ICIQ3, the Third International Conference on Interpreting Quality from 5 to 7 October 2017.

The event is being held at the University of Granada, Campus de la Salud technology park.

ICIQ3 will bring together a variety of perspectives and promote exchange at different levels:

• at the academia/profession interface – between professionals, trainers and researchers;
• intradisciplinary – between standard interpreting settings (conferences, media and public services) as well as their variants (e.g., diplomacy, courts, conflicts and education), addressing both spoken and signed languages;
• interdisciplinary – between interpreting researchers and scholars from other sciences (e.g., translation, linguistics, lexicography, musicology, psychology, sociology, library science and statistics, among others).

The conference will address a number of topics, including, but not limited to the following: quality criteria in different interpreting settings, user expectations and needs, quality perception and quality measurement, quality assurance in the interpreting process, non-professional interpreting, method transfer across disciplines.

The deadline for submission of abstracts is 30 April 2017. Early-bird registration opens 17 April 2017.
