Study at an EMT university

What is the EMT label?

The EMT is a quality label awarded by the European Commission to master's programmes that meet agreed professional standards – built around a shared competence framework covering language, technology and professional skills.

What you will learn

EMT programmes are designed to make you employable from day one. Your training is aligned with the EMT competence framework, so you graduate with the technology, language and professional skills translation employers and institutions are looking for.

Internships and placements

Studying at an EMT university gives you an edge when applying for traineeships at DG Translation. The EMT label is recognised as a mark of high-quality training – which means your CV carries weight before you have even graduated.
