Requirement for the Minor in Computional Linguistics

• Computer Science majors (18 cr.):ÌýLCD 101, 116, 120, 150, 220 or 250, and a 300-level CSCI elective in an area of natural language processing (which may count as an elective for the CS major).
• General Linguistics majors (18 cr.):ÌýCSCI 111, 120, 212, 314, a 300-level CSCI elective in an area of natural language processing, and a course in probability and statistics (either MATH 114 or MATH 241). If students have the appropriate prerequisites, they are encouraged to take MATH 241 because it provides a stronger foundation for their further study or research in computational linguistics beyond the courses in this minor.
• Other majors (33 cr.):ÌýStudents in any other major have to complete both lists of required courses.
• The minimum grade in any required course is C-; the minimum combined grade point average for courses in the minor is 2.7 (B-). At least half of the required course credits must be completed at ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ.
