Eastern Michigan University is developing a new Master's of Arts in
Language Technology.  This degree combines training in both Linguistics and
Computer Science and is designed to help students find employment after
graduation.  

Students in this program will complete two years of coursework in
theoretical and applied computer science, language technology and
linguistic theory, participate in a summer internship at a major company
with language technologist, and do a hands-on practicum with faculty to
tackle genuine industrial problems.  

We'd like your input so that we can shape the program to meet the desired
skills and competencies employers are looking for.  Please complete a brief
online survey at:
http://www.emich.edu/english/employer/opinion.htm.  

The deadline to complete this survey is March 6, 2006.  

For more information, contact Edward Garrett at egarrett at emich.edu.
