专业概况

在这里学什么？

The major in Linguistics & Computer Science allows students to explore human (natural) language from a variety of perspectives, through courses focusing on meaning and linguistic structure at a variety of levels (sounds, words, sentences), with a range of electives in other areas. Students also learn about the organization, design, and construction of hardware and software systems for computing and discover how such systems can be programmed to process and analyze large amounts of natural language data.

This prepares students for a variety of career opportunities in Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing, including improving or developing new software in areas such as grammar checkers, machine translation, and information retrieval. It also provides an excellent background for students who wish to pursue graduate studies in these areas.

Learning Outcomes

Student will achieve: An understanding of the fundamental questions that drive modern linguistic research, along with foundational knowledge in the core areas of linguistic theory; The ability to identify and describe with precision the empirical patterns found in sets of language data and to construct well-reasoned linguistic analyses by formulating, testing, and refining hypotheses about these patterns; The ability to understand and evaluate the organization, design, and construction of hardware and software systems for computing; The ability to analyze problems that require computation to answer and to design and implement appropriate problem solutions that are efficient and effective; The ability to use computational tools, particularly those involving statistical and machine-learning techniques, for language-related applications.
