Master's Programme in Computational Linguistics

Computational Linguistics

This programme offers training for language experts who are able to work with language data, build models and process them as part of contemporary linguistic theories, as well as solve various problems in applied linguistics.

The programme involves two tracks. Linguistic Theory offers students in-depth knowledge of linguistic typology and sociolinguistics, opportunities to study the processes taking place in the Russian language today, and the skills needed to solve problems in applied linguistics.

Computational Linguistics teaches students to master technologies used in automated processing of natural language, and offers studies in software development and mathematical methods.

Students in the programme participate in academic research and projects carried out by the School of Linguistics, expeditions and internships at international universities, and practical training in companies involved in computer linguistics.
