Abstract

The establishing and launch of the Master in Terminology started in 2011, and as a result the training of terminologists has been introduced into Hungarian tertiary education at a masters level. Terminology, lexicography, and terminology management form the core material of the programme. In lexicography the current trends clearly indicate the spread of smartphones and tablets. Some of these gadgets already measure up to average personal computers both in performance and in functionality, and they are expected to outperform PCs soon. Today, just like regular computers, smartphones and tablets offer a wide range of software and are able to carry out various tasks. The paper discusses the emphasis placed in the Master in Terminology on modern tools and the possibilities they open, primarily in the teaching of lexicography and terminology.
