CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

We invite applications for the Erasmus Mundus MA course on NLP and HLT,
organized jointly by Universite de Franche-Comte (France), Universitat
Autonoma de Barcelona (Spain), Universidade do Algarve (Portugal), and
the University of Wolverhampton (UK).

The objective of this Masters Course is to provide education and
training of specialists in Language Technologies and their applications 
and prepare them for careers in the LT industry, research and academia.

Students from European or non European countries will be able to select
a combination of modules on topics in Linguistics, Translation Studies,
Computer Science, and Mathematics, the languages of instruction being 
those of the country of each partner university. As part of the course, 
the students will complete a research project jointly supervised by 
lecturers from the partner universities.

During the two-year programme, each student will spend two semesters
at one university of his/her choice, and another two at either one or
two other universities. After completing the programme, students
will receive a multiple Masters degree from the universities they have
attended.

Up to 18 best non-EU candidates will be offered a grant covering
tuition fees, accommodation and subsistence for the duration of the
course.

4 grants are also offered to scholars to come for 3 months in one or 2
of the consortium universities
