List of NLP/CL courses

This page lists university courses that contain substantial content in Natural Language Processing and Computational Linguistics, and is derived from a survey sponsored by the Association for Computational Linguistics. Courses are categorized by level (undergraduate, graduate, or both) and programming language. The final column gives the year when the information was confirmed to be accurate. (Entries more than five years old, and entries with broken hyperlinks, may be culled.)
