Bachelor of Science - Computational Linguistics

Students will focus on three main areas in the computational linguistics degree program:

• Computer science and engineering: Students will learn to understand methods and techniques in computer science through courses that cover topics like machine learning, big data and artificial intelligence.
• Linguistics: Students will take courses that focus on both language's structural properties and its social uses so that they can bring a linguistic perspective to technological tools and use computational methods to answer linguistic questions.
• World languages: A unique aspect of the computational linguistics degree at the University of Nevada, Reno is the focus on languages like Spanish or French, and students will develop proficiency in one of these languages during their degree. 

This interdisciplinary perspective prepares graduates for careers in the in-demand field of computational linguistics, and the emphasis on foreign language proficiency gives you a unique skill set that can be applied here in Nevada or around the globe.
