The Departments of Linguistics and Computer Science have teamed up to offer the ONLY Master of Science in Computational Linguistics program in New Jersey. A total of 32 credits is required to complete the two-year Master?s program. All interested in languages and technology can apply regardless of their undergraduate major.

Prerequisite courses (up to 11 additional credits) will be determined in consultation with the Graduate Program Coordinator. The coursework depends on the background of the student. Computational linguistics is an interdisciplinary academic discipline that combines elements of linguistics, software engineering, artificial intelligence and electrical engineering. Professionals trained in this field help machines process human language and help linguists understand language through computer models. It is the most commercially viable branch of linguistics, hundreds of companies in the US work on computational linguistics or Natural Language Processing (NLP, a related field whose goal is to build language processing applications).
