Programmes:
-
Mtech: an advanced course driven, two-year programme with opportunities for project work in the final semester. Mtech in Computational Linguistics is research driven and thesis forms a major component of the program.
-
Mphil (Computational Linguistics only)/MS by Research: A research driven masters programme open to students with an advanced background in relevant areas. A research thesis is central to this programme. Expected duration is 2 years.
-
PG Diploma in Computational Linguistics:This is 1-year programme that gives students an opportunity to learn the basics of the subject and an experience in developing linguistic resources for natural language processing.
-
PhD: The programme requires course work and clearing of breadth and depth qualifiers followed by thesis work. Approximate duration of this programme is 3 to 5 years.
Admission Procedure:
Admission to PG programmes will be on the basis of the performance at the
Post-Graduate And PhD Entrance Examination (PGEE 2006) and an interview to be held at Hyderabad. However, for the research programmes i.e., Ph.D. and M.S. by Research programmes, exceptional candidates may be called directly for the interview on the basis of their application.
How to Apply:
All applications should be made through the Post Graduate Admissions Portal. Applications can apply for one or more programmes in the same form by indicating choices. The application fee is Rs.800/- for one programme and Rs.50/- extra for each additional programme applied for.
