The

their work in computational linguistics and natural language processing. Students
receive feedback from the general conference audience as well as from mentors
specifically assigned according to the topic of their work.
We invite
papers in two different categories:
- Thesis Proposals: This category is
appropriate for advanced students who have decided on a thesis topic and wish to get
feedback on their proposal and broader ideas for their continuing work
-
Research Papers: Papers in this category can describe completed work, or work in
progress with preliminary results. For these papers, the first author must be a
current graduate or undergraduate student
Topics of interest for the SRW
are the same as NAACL main conference. See the list of topics at
