Lucía Pintado Gutiérrez is an Assistant Professor at the School of Applied Language and Intercultural Studies in Dublin City University. She holds a European PhD on Translation in Language Education from the University of Valladolid (Spain) where she completed a BA in Translation and Interpreting, and an MPhil in Translation and Intercultural Communication.

As well as exploring the developing field of language education and translation, her research interests include other aspects of applied linguistics such as sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, as well as translation studies –namely foreign language teaching and learning in Higher Education, translation pedagogy, learners’ motivation and agency, and accessibility and audiovisual translation in language teaching and learning. She also carries out research at the intersection of translation and memory studies. Her research activity includes publications in top journals and edited volumes on these topics.

She was co-editor of the Irish journal Teanga, the Journal of the Irish Association for Applied Linguistics (2020-2023) and president of APTIS, the Association of Programmes in Translation and Interpreting Studies, UK and Ireland (2021-2024). She is now director of the Centre for Translation and Textual Studies (CTTS) .

Lucía welcomes expressions of interest for PhD supervision and postdoctoral mentorship in the fields mentioned above and related areas (applied linguistics, foreign language education, translation studies). You may click on 'Research' and 'Publications' for further information.

Research Interests

Lucía's research background lies on translation and language teaching, focusing on the principles on how translation may be used as a tool in the foreign language classroom and also how it may be developed as a skill in the benefit of FL learners, including accessibility and audiovisual translation in language teaching and learning. Her interdisciplinary research is carried out through a framework of Translation Studies, Applied Linguistics and Cognitive Studies.

Her current research includes also the nexus between translation and memory studies, focusing particularly on cultural artefacts during the Spanish Civil War, Franco's dictatorship and afterwards within literary translation.

Teaching Interests

Lucía has extensive teaching experience at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Her areas of expertise include general and specialised translation, contemporary Spain, ab initio and advanced language skills, and the development of virtual learning environments and digital tools.

Lucía believes in a student-centered approach to teaching and learning where the classroom becomes a forum. She makes every effort to build an inclusive and critical learning environment.

She has contributed to training courses for teachers of Spanish as a foreign language and also for translators and interpreters in Ireland and Spain (University of Salamanca, University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, University of Limerick) and Instituto Cervantes Dublin.
