CLTL

Education

Master programs

With our strong research background, CLTL prepares students for academic careers in Computational Linguistics and AI, evidenced by many of our students that continue their passion as PhDs in the field. Other students find their way in industry, start-ups and larger organisations or government as our master provides you with all the skills to apply technology built with Large Language Models. Have a look at our Research Master and Text Mining programs if you are interested in getting ready for the job market with your language technology and AI skills.

Diversity and Multidisciplinarity

Many of our students started with a background in linguistics only but within a year they learned to use their skills and knowledge to analyse language as data. Other students have a technical or AI background but want to specialise in Large Language Models and language applications such as conversational AI. These students get a deeper understanding of language as data and what Language Models really are. See our theses for an overview of our internship topics.

Connecting students and the job market

The CLTL actively engages in bringing together students and the job market. We invite companies and academic institutions every year to meet and present internship and thesis topics to our students. Recent contacts include among others Amberscript, the AUMC, Bolesian, CBS, Diginova, Elsevier, IBM, MyTomorrows, De Nederlandsche Bank, Prolody, Reddata, TextMetrics and Underlined.
