Description

The Computational
Linguistics program at Georgetown University addresses many
issues in humanities/social science graduate education by
successfully connecting students with non-academic careers
in the growing field of human language technology. Program
faculty provide 'truth in advertising' by posting placements
on the program website and by advising all incoming
Linguistics graduate students on prospects for academic vs.
non-academic careers. The program empowers a diverse student
body to pursue technology careers through accessible
entry-level courses, state-of-the-art content delivered by
male and female adjunct faculty from industry and
government, and a certificate program in language
technology. Most M.S. and Ph.D. students take positions in
the field after their first year of coursework; they benefit
from on-the-job learning, enhance the classroom environment,
and contribute to a powerful career network.
