Danielle found her intellectual home in our CS+Linguistics major (a joint collaboration between our Linguistics dept. and @UICCS). Read more about her path and successes and get inspired!
Sometimes, the best route isn’t always the fastest. Senior Danielle Cartagenes found her path through UIC’s computer science and linguistics program, where she created a game-playing linguistic chat bot. cs.uic.edu/news-stories/dani…
