Computational Linguistics is an interdisciplinary academic discipline that combines elements of linguistics, software engineering, artificial intelligence and electrical engineering. Professionals trained in this field help machines process human language and help linguists understand language through computer models. It is the most commercially viable branch of linguistics; hundreds of companies in the US work on computational linguistics or Natural Language Processing (NLP, a related field whose goal is to build language processing applications).

The program is offered by Montclair State University.
