Centre for Language Technology

Located in Sydney, Australia, Macquarie University's Centre for Language Technology is Australasia's largest and longest-established body of researchers working in natural language processing, computational linguistics and language technology. We have a well-developed infrastructure for carrying out research and teaching in these areas, and welcome approaches from students or visitors interested in working with us. We also frequently have employment opportunities available on research projects. Please explore our site to find out more about us.

The CLT is hosting the Association for Computational Linguistics' new Survey of Teaching in Natural Language Processing. If you teach a course that includes NLP content, please add information about your course to this growing web resource.

Other services we provide to the community include the LT Update industry newsletter, and the SALS-SIG seminar series.
