Explore the intersection of human language and information technology with an interdisciplinary curriculum covering linguistics, computational linguistics and practical business training. Upon completion of your degree, you will have the skills required to advance your career in a competitive workforce. We work closely with internship providers in the industry to provide opportunities for strong hands-on experience in the form of a final project. You will also write a Master’s thesis documenting an actual completed implementation. Possible local industrial internship opportunities include Lockheed Martin (Phoenix), Intel (Chandler), Raytheon (Tucson), and Motorola (Phoenix). The Master of Science in HLT is designed for students who are interested in going directly into industry rather than going into academia on the PhD track.
