Computational Linguistics Certificate
Computational Linguistics is an interdisciplinary field using the tools of linguistics to help analyze how machines process language and using computational tools to investigate how humans process language. Expertise in the field can prepare students for jobs in technology and experience design (for example, designing better translators, voice activated devices such as smart speakers, or AI enhanced technology).
