Advising Information for Current CL MS Students
Each semester, there are set office hour times when Computational Linguistics MS Students can bring their questions, problems or feedback to their advisors. This includes questions about curriculum and course selection, degree requirements, issues you're having in a class or in school, career planning, planning for PhD study, Exit Requirements, and any other questions you might have.
Please feel free to sign up for one or more back-to-back 15 minutes slots, according to how much time you need. Note: ALL office hours are listed in Eastern Standard (“Boston time”). You may choose to meet with Lotus or Sophia in person or virtually (see full schedule below). If all slots are taken or you are busy during office hours, please email Sophia and Lotus to arrange another time to meet.
In addition, Emily Palmer in the Division of Science Graduate Affairs Office will be available on campus and by email and Zoom. Please email Emily at Emilydpalmer@brandeis.edu or scigradoffice@brandeis.edu (the Division of Science Graduate Affairs Office email) to schedule a time to meet in person or by Zoom. The Graduate Affairs Office can provide you with information related to your academic records, campus resources and any administrative questions that you have.
