other degrees in Philosophy at the University of London, students taking
Linguistics degrees at the University of London, and students from other
departments at King's College.

philosophy of language, semantics, logic, artificial intelligence, and the
theory of formal grammar.

The program is a one-year full time MSc course designed primarily for
students who have completed a BA/BSc in linguistics, computer science,
philosophy, logic, or mathematics, and who wish to pursue the application
of formal and computationalmethods to the analysis of natural language. The
MSc will also serve as the taught year of an MPhil/Ph.D research degree in
formal grammar and computational linguistics.

-	Professor Dov Gabbay (Computer Science Department)
	logic, non-monotonic reasoning
-	Professor Ruth Kempson (Philosphy Department)
