And I really wish I could reply to all of y'all's emails, but unfortunately I don't have the capacity to 馃槗. </p> <p> I started this FAQ to hopefully answer some of your questions before you even have to email me (and potentially wait a long time on my response). Please read the FAQ, which I promise you will be as up-to-date as I can make it (see the "last updated" date in the bottom right corner). </p> <p> Note, I will try my best to respond to emails related to diversity equity and inclusion things, including requests for mentorship in some form from people from backgrounds or identities that have been historically underrepresented in the fields of CS, AI, and NLP. </p> <p> If you still want to email me after reading it, <a class="" data-toggle="collapse" href="#email" role="button" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="email">click this.</a> </p> <div class="collapse" id="email"> <div class="card card-body"> <a href="mailto:maartensap@cmu.edu">maartensap@cmu.edu</a> </div> </div> <h3 class="mt-3">FAQ: Please do <span style="font-weight: 400;">not</span> email me if...</h3> <h4 id="applying-to-work-with-me">...you're applying to CMU and want to work with me <small style="color: #CC0000;">[updated September 2024]</small></h4> <p> That's awesome, thank you so much for being interested in my research! Unfortunately, my lab is currently quite full, so <strong><em>I am not taking students this cycle.</em></strong>. There are many different cool faculty you should check out at LTI, HCII, MLD, etc. </p>  <h4 id="applied-to-work-with-me">...you have applied to CMU to work with me <small style="color: #CC0000;">[updated Feb 2023]</small></h4> <p> If you have already applied to LTI and have not yet heard back, thank you so much for doing that! However, please do NOT email me to check on your application or re-iterate your interest. I understand waiting can be stressful, and you will hear back eventually either way; emailing me repeatedly is not going to change decisions, and instead insistence can leave a negative impression. </p> <h4>...you're a CMU MLT student (or other masters) and want to work with me, either during your masters or for a PhD</h4> <p> Same as above, thank you so much for your interest! If you are considering applying to a CMU PhD, please apply and mention my name; I will consider applications all at the same time to be fair to everyone, and to preserve my own time. </p> <p> If you are an MLT master student, I am sorry but I am not taking master students for funded RA positions at this time. </p> <p> If you are in another masters and want to do capstone research or independent research, do email me, although please note that my advising slots are limited. </p> <h4 id="applying-to-intern-with-me">...you want to intern with me at AI2 <small style="color: #CC0000;">[updated Nov 2023]</small></h4> <p> Thanks so much for your interest! I am only loosely involved in intern recruiting at AI2, so the best option is to apply via <a href="https://allenai.org/internships">official channels </a>, and mention my name. </p> <p>Please note that I will very likely not be advising more than one intern.</p> <h4>...you're a student elsewhere and want to work with me for a semester, summer, or year</h4> <p> Again, thank you so much for your interest! </p> <p>Unfortunately, I'm merely starting out as a professor and do not currently have the bandwidth to advise or mentor, even if you are self-funded, so please do not email me.  </p> <h4>...you're interested in UW and/or working with Yejin Choi or Noah Smith</h4> <p> That's great, but unfortunately I am not at UW anymore, I'm not in charge of Yejin or Noah's groups, nor can I give you the "<em>scoop</em>" on how to maximize your chances to work with either of them. Your best bet is to apply to UW, and check their individual webpages for information on whether and how they want to be contacted: <a target="_blank" href="https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~nasmith/">Noah Smith</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~yejin/">Yejin Choi</a>. </p> </div>  <div class="col-3 justify-content-center"> <h5>Find me on...</h5> <a class="btn btn-light" href="http://twitter.com/maartensap" target="_blank"> <img src="images/twitter-icon.png" class="icon" title="Twitter Profile" alt="Twitter Profile"> </a> <a class="btn btn-light" href="https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=gFN4QUYAAAAJ&hl=en" target="_blank"> <img src="images/google-scholar-icon.png" class="icon" title="Google Scholar Profile" alt="Google Scholar Profile"> </a> <a class="btn btn-light" href="https://www.semanticscholar.org/author/Maarten-Sap/2729164" target="_blank"> <img src="images/s2-logo-bw.png" class="icon" title="Semantic Scholar Profile" alt="Semantic Scholar Profile"> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div>    <style> h3, h4 { font-weight: 300; font-style: italic; } </style> </body> <footer class="footer"> <hr> <div style="width:99%">   <div class="row"> <div class="col-2"> </div> <div class="col-8 text-center"> <img src="images/LTI-logo.png" style="width:300px; margin-bottom: 20px;"> </div> <div class="col-2 mb-1"> <div class="text-muted small" style="font-style: italic; text-align: right;"> Last updated: <br> 2024-09-02 </div> </div> </div> </div> </footer> </html>
