    Overview

    Explore the language science powering tomorrow's communication technologies. Computational Linguistics introduces you to the wonders of the analytical methods underlying natural language technologies. During this two-week program, you will learn how human languages are both the same and different, explore software and technology for processing language and human speech, and apply these tools and knowledge to investigate many world languages.

    Working with faculty and graduate students during this course you will:

    • Learn analytical, computational, and creative thinking about human language
    • Research science facing the science and engineering of natural language technologies
    • Participate in team projects motivated by research challenges.

    By the end of the program, you will have sufficient linguistic knowledge, analytical skills, software expertise, and awareness of the field to pursue further independent study and to inform future choices for education and careers.
