Description:

The MPhil course in Computer Speech, Text and Internet Technology covers the
fundamental theory of speech and natural language processing and its use in a
variety of advanced applications, especially those related to the Internet. 
Applications covered include information retrieval, information extraction,
dialogue systems, machine translation and question answering.
 
The course runs from early October to the end of June and consists of two terms
of lectures and practicals followed by a project.  There are strong links with
industry and many of our students have gone on to work for start-ups and
industrial research laboratories, either immediately or after completing a PhD.

Cambridge is a major international centre for research in both speech and
language processing. The course is taught by leading researchers in these areas
who have active collaborations with industrial and academic laboratories in
Europe, the US and Japan.

A number of studentships will be available. The deadline for applications is
March 31, 2008.  The deadline for those seeking funding from the Gates and other
Cambridge Trusts (EU and overseas students) is January 31st 2008.

An Open Day for prospective applicants will be held on January 30th: advance
booking is required. 

Application Deadline: 31-Mar-2008
