I took Greg Durrett's undergrad NLP course years ago and really enjoyed it. Cool to see this posted here

MIT's NLP class is also good https://www.mit.edu/~jda/teaching/6.864/

I don’t see any code notebooks. What exactly is being taught? I'm open to suggestions for courses that teach theory using also pytorch code :-)

  Did you look at the Assignments? The [code and dataset download] links?

    Yes I have seen those. I mean that effective teaching needs talking, visual illustrations (slides), and code.

Stanford's NLP Group has a good list of more specialized NLP coursers ( as well as CS224N, basically their CS388) - https://nlp.stanford.edu/teaching/ https://nlp.stanford.edu/teaching/ CS 124: From Languages to Information CS224n: NLP with DL from Stanford CS224U: Natural Language Understanding (Lecture Videos) CS224S: Spoken Language Processing CS276 : Information Retrieval and Web Search CS324 - Large Language Models LING 289: History of Computational Linguistics Some others are below https://nasmith.github.io/NLP-winter22/about/ https://nasmith.github.io/NLP-winter22/about/ https://www.cs.princeton.edu/courses/archive/fall22/cos597G/ https://www.cs.princeton.edu/courses/archive/fall22/cos597G/ https://self-supervised.cs.jhu.edu/fa2022/ https://self-supervised.cs.jhu.edu/fa2022/ (has a list of other NLP courses at the bottom) http://demo.clab.cs.cmu.edu/NLP/ http://demo.clab.cs.cmu.edu/NLP/ (has a list of other NLP courses at the bottom) I found it useful to compare various school's NLP courses when doing my own learning for different view points.

This page mentions an EDX course, but I couldn't find it. Where is it?

  It's for the paid online masters degree. Searching for "UT Austin MSAI" will lead you to the program.

For those who prefer videos, my PhD advisor puts all his class lectures online and updates his course materials to cover the latest trends in NLP. Here's the playlist for the current Spring 2024 semester of the course: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWnsVgP6CzafDszSy-njjdqnliv5qT0EW https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWnsVgP6CzafDszSy-njj...

They had some funny ad using scenes from the Terminator for the class but I can't find it on YouTube anymore. I took both CS224N and CS388 for credit; CS388 is more like CS224N and CS224U packed together, CS224N goes slightly deeper on the most recent topics. Greg is a cool teacher and his lectures are pretty good!
