60 universities receive ‘European Master’s in Translation’ Label

ec-logoThe European Commission has announced the list of universities selected for its ‘European Master’s in Translation’ (EMT) Label. More than 60 institutions in 21 Member States will receive the Label, which recognises the best Master’s degree courses for translators. The main goal of the EMT is to improve translator training and to attract top quality translators to the European institutions. Universities receiving the Commission’s seal of approval are entitled to join the EMT network for the next five years and receive funding for lecturers to attend its annual conference and seminars, announced the Commission.

The EMT promotes the exchange of best practices between universities, enhanced teaching standards, a curriculum that takes account of market needs to improve employability of graduates and the creation of a truly European job market for skilled translators.

The Commission received a total of 114 applications from 25 Member States and 3 non-EU countries for the EMT Label. The proposals were assessed against a strict set of criteria by academic experts. They selected study programmes from 62 universities in 21 Member States and two programmes from a non-EU country (Switzerland) received observer status.

The number of applications reflects the rising popularity of the project among universities. There were 93 applications (54 selected) under the previous call in 2010. The next call for applications is scheduled at the end of 2019.
