Master of Science in Natural Language Processing
MSc Degree in Natural Language Processing by IDMC: Overcome linguistic data challenges
At the crossroads of computer science, mathematics, linguistics, and artificial intelligence (AI)
Studying NLP is studying linguistics (what are the rules defining a language?), computer science (How to program models which can convert data into text or vice versa, or which can interpret the content of a text?) and formal approaches (probability theory, statistics).
NLP has many applications: machine translation, human-machine dialogue, summarization, opinion detection (e.g. is the text for or against Brexit?), computer-aided language learning (e.g., automatic generation of exercises for language learning) and text simplification to facilitate access to content.
NLP is a strongly expanding field which addresses fascinating scientific challenges (how to model natural language?) and students graduating from our MSc are equipped to face any challenge requiring linguistic data.
You can enter the master in the first year (for 2 years, with a bachelor - 180 ECTS) or directly in second year (for 1 year with 240 ECTS).
