Abstract |
This paper introduces the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master in Lexicography – EMJM-EMLex - especially some new developments and objectives. The EMJM-EMLex programme remains focused on lexicography, but is evolving into a multidisciplinary, digital discipline in order to adapt to societal and scientific changes. Founded in 2009, experience to date confirms that the success of EMLex lies in its unique objectives and in responding to the ever-changing needs of society while fostering international collaboration, linguistic diversity and cultural exchange (Dias, 2022). The programme’s multidisciplinary approach is in line with the Council of Europe’s language policy goals, emphasising lifelong learning and multilingualism. With 8 full member universities and 8 associate members in its consortium, the programme offers an international and interdisciplinary curriculum covering lexicography, digital humanities, language technologies and natural language processing. EMJM-EMLex integrates theoretical and practical aspects of lexicography over four semesters, including mobility periods, advanced modules, internships and a master’s thesis, after which graduates receive a joint degree from the member universities. EMJM-EMLex graduates are prepared for diverse career opportunities. The programme’s commitment to innovation, internationalisation and sustainability ensures its continued relevance and impact in the digital age. |
