UCLA Ling + CS vs UW CS

I’d recommend you poke around at the course descriptions here, specifically in the EE and CS departments. There are additional courses covering computational linguistics offered by the Ling department.

You will be taking all of the same lower division prereqs as a regular CS major would. The only difference is you will not take one lower division hardware course nor the multivariable calculus/differential equations courses.

As a Ling + CS major, you also get “first pass” enrollment into all CS courses, and then as a Data Science Engineering minor you would get “first pass” enrollment into any related EE course you would want.
