Date: 20-Jan-2006 From: Venus Gregory <VGregoryemich.edu> Subject: EMU Language Technology Program Employer Survey
Eastern Michigan University is developing a new Master’s of Arts in Language Technology. This degree combines training in both Linguistics and Computer Science and is designed to help students find employment after graduation.
Students in this program will complete two years of coursework in theoretical and applied computer science, language technology and linguistic theory, participate in a summer internship at a major company with language technologist, and do a hands-on practicum with faculty to tackle genuine industrial problems.
We’d like your input so that we can shape the program to meet the desired skills and competencies employers are looking for. Please complete a brief online survey at: http://www.emich.edu/english/employer/opinion.htm.
The deadline to complete this survey is March 6, 2006.
