The Sheffield MSc in Human Language Technology has been carefully tailored
to meet the demand for graduates with the highly-specialised
multi-disciplinary skills that are required in HLT, both as practitioners in
the development of HLT applications and as researchers into the advanced
capabilities required for next-generation HLT systems.  The course provides
a balanced programme of instruction across a range of relevant disciplines
including speech technology, natural language processing and dialogue
systems.

The programme is taught in a research-led environment.  This means that you
will study the most advanced theories and techniques in the field, and also
have the opportunity to use state- of-the-art software tools.  You will also
have opportunities to engage in research-level activity through in-depth
exploration of chosen topics and through your dissertation.

Graduates from this course are highly valued in industry, commerce and
academia.  The programme is also an excellent introduction to the
substantial research opportunities for doctoral-level study in HLT.
