MA/MS in Computerlinguistik (mit Nebenfach)

The Master's programme with a minor in Computational Linguistics covers the machine processing of natural language, drawing on language technology, information retrieval and data mining. It has strong links to linguistics, computer science, logic and phonetics. The programme is divided into three areas: information retrieval, information extraction, digital libraries and information systems; lexicon and syntactic and semantic analysis methods; and the algorithmic and formal foundations of the field. The four-semester degree is taught in German and begins only in the winter semester. Open admission applies to the first semester for graduates of at least six semesters in computational linguistics or a related subject. Higher semesters have free entry. Applicants should check the programme's requirements for the first semester before applying.
