Master’s in Natural Language Processing (NLP) - Robustness track
The Master’s in Natural Language Processing (NLP) trains experts at the intersection of computer science, linguistics, and artificial intelligence. This programme prepares students to tackle the challenges of language technologies, whether in research or industry. Through an interdisciplinary approach and strong partnerships, it provides an ideal framework for developing advanced skills in a rapidly expanding field.
Natural Language Processing (NLP), known as Traitement Automatique des Langues (TAL) in French, aims to develop computational models capable of understanding and reproducing natural languages (such as French, Arabic, Chinese, etc.), as opposed to formal languages used in programming or mathematics.
Studying NLP means taking on a scientific challenge that draws on multiple disciplines:
- Linguistics: Understanding the rules governing a language and modelling linguistic patterns.
- Computer Science: Developing models to convert text into data and interpret textual or spoken content.
- Artificial Intelligence: Applying probabilistic and statistical methods, from neural networks to machine learning.
- Formal Methods: Using logic and mathematics to solve real-world problems.
Our programme combines theoretical foundations with practical experience, equipping students with in-depth expertise while addressing the ethical challenges of this rapidly growing field.

Why choose this master’s programme?
- With an international reach, our Master's programme brings together students from around the world and covers all aspects of natural language processing, providing graduates with numerous professional opportunities globally.
- Rooted in a world-class research environment, our programme benefits from the support of renowned laboratories such as the ATILF and the LORIA, which are leading references in language technologies and artificial intelligence.
- Our interdisciplinary approach to NLP combines the design of practical tools with issues derived from academic research, providing students with a comprehensive understanding of innovation in language technologies.
The teaching framework of the MSc in NLP is designed to accommodate the diversity of students’ academic backgrounds, whether they come from a more computer science-oriented or linguistics-oriented background. The tracks are designed to ensure the acquisition of solid foundational knowledge during the first year, followed by the development of specialised expertise in response to the contemporary scientific and societal challenges of the discipline.
- In the first year (M1), students choose between the "Computer Science" (CS) and "Computational Linguistics" (CL) tracks. The CS track is intended for students with a background in computer science and aims to strengthen their competencies across the various domains of linguistics. The CL track is designed for students with a predominantly linguistic background and places particular emphasis on the acquisition of core skills in computer science, programming, and probability. These tracks share the objective of bringing students’ diverse academic profiles towards a common level of expertise.
- In the second year (M2), students choose between the "Reasoning" (RE) and "Robustness" (RO) tracks. The RE track focuses on reasoning, semantics, and the interpretation of linguistic data, drawing on symbolic and analytical approaches to artificial intelligence. The RO track, by contrast, emphasises the robustness and reliability of natural language processing systems, with particular attention to adaptation low-resource languages, and the associated ethical challenges.
