The Computer Science Department and the Linguistics and Communication Disorders Department jointly offer a minor in Computational Linguistics that is designed to provide students majoring in Computer Science (BA or BS degree) or General Linguistics with the necessary interdisciplinary skills for a career in research\u200b, application, and technology development of computerized natural language processing.<\/p>\n

For information for all students and advising appointments for CS majors, contact Professor Haddican.<\/a><\/p>\n

Requirements for the Minor in Computational Linguistics<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Computer Science majors (18 cr.):<\/strong>\u00a0LCD 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).<\/li>\n
  2. General Linguistics majors (18 cr.):<\/strong>\u00a0CSCI 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.<\/li>\n
  3. Other majors (33 cr.):<\/strong>\u00a0Students in any other major have to complete both lists of required courses.<\/li>\n
  4. 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.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
