Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS) is a postgraduate degree programme offered by universities. NLP is a fascinating field at the crossroads of language studies, artificial intelligence, and computer science. Thanks to deep learning techniques, tools in this area are now performing so well that they’re transforming how we handle anything involving natural languages. Our Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS) programme in Natural Language Processing - AI for Languages dives into this exciting field. It is designed for professionals who want an overview of the NLP domain with a focus on recent developments (e.g. deep learning models) and who want to learn how to apply useful tools. The program targets practitioners who aim for an overview of the NLP domain with focus on recent developments (deep learning models) and hands-on learning. Programming skills, basic knowledge in mathematics and machine learning are helpful but not required. The Program is structured into six modules.
