The new program enables students to understand core algorithms and data structures in CL, and both symbolic and statistical methods in CL and their appropriate use in applications. This one year program is designed for graduates in related disciplines, for example, Computer Science, Linguistics, or Electrical Engineering, who wish to gain sufficient expertise in this inherently cross-disciplinary area to effectively participate in language technology projects in industry and academia. Students will take graduate level courses in Computer Science and Linguistics. Further details on the program can be found by sending email to Eileen Fitzpatrick fitzpatrickemail.montclair.edu or Anna Feldman feldmanamail.montclair.edu Applications are invited for Fall 2012.
