Abstract

The article analyses student interpreting internships and voluntary interpreting between 1990 and 2018, focusing on Charles University's Institute of Translation Studies. The introductory portion focuses on the lack of theoretical literature devoted to this topic.

The empirical section contains a statistical analysis of the data on the internships held between 1990 and 2018, which was extracted from 2,190 reports written by 618 students, as well as an analysis of students' comments regarding their internships. The article examines the trends in the field of student interpreting internships, their chronological evolution, and the personal opinions of participating students.
