David Ameisen, PhD
Expert French ↔ English Translator
Judicial Expert appointed by the Douai Court of Appeal
Professional translator since 2001
Recognition of a foreign degree in France — or a French degree abroad — almost always requires a certified translation produced by a sworn translator. David Ameisen, a sworn translator and holder of a PhD from Université Paris Cité, combines rare academic expertise with official sworn status to produce translations accepted by ENIC-NARIC, French universities, and professional licensing bodies.
His dual background — academic research in France and the United States — gives him an unusually precise command of the terminology used across disciplines, from sciences to humanities to law. This service works both ways: from French into English, and from English — US, UK, Canada, Ireland, Australia… — into French.
All the documents in an application are translated together, with consistent terminology and layout. Into English, the translation follows the conventions of the country of the institution you are applying to — US or UK English — especially for honours, rendered with the designations used in that country (summa cum laude, magna cum laude… in the US; First, 2:1… in the UK).
