On September 24th and 25th, 2026, the first three EMLex students who had Universität Hildesheim as their home university, Elena Andreeva, Larisa Ferreira and Miguel A. Lopez Alfonso, had the 'disputatio' of their Master's theses. All three of them passed with good and excellent results.
The European Master in Lexicography (EMLex) is an international Master’s degree programme (120 ECTS) that has been offered since 2009. Since 2016, the EMJM-EMLex has been awarded as an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree.
The EMLex community warmly congratulates Prof. Ernesto González Seoane, lecturer in the EMLex programme at the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC), on his admission as a full member of the Royal Galician Academy (RAG).
USC-EMLex is very proud that Emmanuel S. Fomat, an EMLex graduate from the Sulkhan Saba Orbeliani cohort (intake 2024), has been awarded a PhD scholarship as part of the new international project MultiLAwa – Multilingual Language Awareness in the European Digital Society. Emmanuel succeeded in a highly competitive selection process and was chosen as a PhD candidate. Congratulations!
The European Master in Lexicography (EMLex) was represented at EURALEX 2026, one of the major international conferences in lexicography, held at the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna.
On Wednesday, 23 September, the EMLex Steering Board welcomed the students of the 2026 intake, known as the Luca Serianni Cohort, during a consortium-wide online welcome session.
In attendance were the students of the new cohort, the Programme Coordinator, Prof. María José Domínguez, Dr. Christine Ganslmayer, both members of the EMLex Steering Board, Prof. Martina Nied, coordinator of the B1 module, and Luke Akinremi, Programme Manager.
I recommend EMLex because this master’s program allows you to plunge into the world of dictionaries in which you are accompanied by the most renowned international lexicographers. Furthermore, due to its international and interdisciplinary structure, you get in contact with people of so many diverse cultures.

I recommend EMLex because it offers two Master programs in one: you will get the best lexicographical skills while increasing your multicultural awareness. It is a studying experience...

I recommend EMLex because the professors are really very dedicated and patient. In addition, I was able to test the knowledge acquired in Mexico, and my level of English and German improved thanks to the interaction with classmates and professors of different nationalities. I feel very fortunate to belong to such a close-knit community and to have friends in different parts of the world.

I recommend EMLex because you can acquire a fundamental education, meet professional lecturers who do their best for every student, you can learn new fields and updates related to lexicography, and nowhere else but here you can become a professional lexicographer. I am very grateful to have the opportunity to be a member of this big family. After only two months of study, I can say that reality overcame expectations.

I recommend EMLex because the program is well-structured, we can work with the world’s best lexicographers, and it is possible to get new knowledge and experience while studying in several European universities.
