Gothenburg vs Manchester vs Uppsala for Computational Linguistics
Hello! I've been accepted to two programs and I'm struggling to decide between Gothenburg and Manchester. I'm also on the waitlist to study at Uppsala. I would love to hear from students or anyone who has knowledge about these schools.
- University of Gothenburg - MA in Language Technology
- Fee-exempt student because I'm EU
- University of Manchester - MSc in Corpus and Computational Linguistics
- International student (37k euros)
- University of Uppsala - MA in Language Technology
- Fee-exempt student
- On reserve
While I have enough funds for Man and my parents are willing to fill in any living costs I'd need to pay, it's still quite an investment.
Here is some of the things I've achieved during my BA:
- Constructed a Corpora of direct speech (ELAN, Phonological transcription, basic report on our methodology)
- Built a static website using HTML/CSS, and currently I'm learning C# and JS
- Extracted selected words and phrases of our Corpus, eliminating every discourse marks, disfluencies or unnatural structure using Python with pandas and stanza for it
- Created a Wordle and a Phrasle game using Python with tkinter among other modules.
