MSc Speech & Language Processing

  • Objectives This programme aims to equip students with the technical knowledge and practical skills required to carry out research and development in the challenging interdisciplinary arena of speech and language technology. Taught by leading researchers from Linguistics & English Language, the Centre for Speech Technology Research and the School of Informatics, this programme combines elements of linguistics, computer science, engineering and psychology.
  • Entry requirements Entry Requirements An undergraduate degree in linguistics, computing, engineering, psychology, philosophy and mathematics or equivalent relevant experience. We do not require a high level of computing skills for entry to the programme but do expect students to be willing to learn. The computational element varies depending on your choice of courses, and can be tailored to those with a strong computational background or to those with none. In addition to the supporting documents requested on the application form, candidates are asked to submit a personal statement.
