Programme:
Our Corpus Linguistics Summer School aims to equip participants with
critical expertise in both the theory and practice of corpus-supported
linguistic research. Over the course of four days, participants will
be actively involved in two kinds of sessions. First, hands-on
sessions will put the emphasis on the learning of practical skills for
the purpose of extracting and analysing corpus data of various kinds,
and the application of this knowledge to specific research projects.
Second, participants will learn about current corpus research from our
team.

Topics of sessions will include (this is a non-exhaustive list and
subject to change):
- Analysing healthcare data using corpus linguistics
- Analysing learner language
- Behavioral Profile
- Corpora and legal research
- CQPweb
- Fake news
- Introduction to R
- Phraseology
- Sign language corpora
- Statistics and readability
- Tagging and parsing with spaCy
- Topic models
