Hi, I’m currently thinking on studying computational linguistics in Germany. The option that I like the most is Saarland’s program.

¿Have you studied there? ¿Could you please describe how you experience was and if you consider that option good too?

I also would like to know what kind of job opportunities are present in Saarland or near the university, in case I want to work or do some internships during my studies. I know there are more job options in bigger cities but I just want to know if Saarland still has some options thanks to the Artificial Intelligence Centre or others.

I’m deeply interested in NLP and maybe I’d like to work in that field, also, I’m interested in the bachelor’s degree, not in the master’s degree

Hey y’all - I applied for a masters in comp Ling at Georgetown for fall 2024- application due date was Jan 15, and I still haven’t heard back (as of April 8). Has anyone else heard back/ gotten in already?

Hey!

I am currently a second-year students in a somewhat computational linguistics program, and orienting myself in that direction for my masters.

Currently, the programs I am most interested in are Stuttgart, Tuebingen and Heidelberg as well, though I don't think I have enough CL credits for Heidelberg.

Obviously, Tuebingen is a very beautiful city and along with Heidelberg, the universities are highly ranked internationally and nationally, while Stuttgart scores significantly lower. However, they are both MA's, and thus seem to focus more on linguistics. I am interested in working in industry after. I am really interested in speech processing though, which would speak for stuttgart again.

Any advice/experience/input is appreciated!!
