The Master of Data Science in Computational Linguistics is a unique degree tailored to those with a passion for language and data.
Program Overview
This 10-month intensive program is aimed at providing those with a degree in linguistics or another language-focused discipline the technical skills to pursue a career in language technology and natural language processing. This specialization is a joint program with the Computer Science and Statistics departments at UBC. Through this program, we equip our graduates with the skills to turn language-related data into applicable knowledge and to build Artificial Intelligence (AI) that can interpret human language.
Our courses are taught by faculty members who are key experts in their fields including: linguistics, computer science, and statistics. Additionally, students will be required to complete a capstone project in order to apply their acquired knowledge, while working with their peers and real-life data sets.
