Summer School in English Corpus Linguistics 2023 (online)

I am pleased to announce the tenth annual UCL Summer School in English Corpus Linguistics, to be held online from 19-21 June.

The Summer School is a short three-day intensive course aimed at PhD-level students and researchers who wish to get to grips with Corpus Linguistics from the perspective of the ‘Survey Methodology’. It is offered at £125 for early bookings made before 14 May, rising to £150 after.

Each day begins with a theory lecture, followed by a guided hands-on workshop with corpora. It is timed to run from 9:00 to 13:00 British Summer Time (GMT+1), to make it accessible for students across Europe, Africa and Asia.

This is a picture of our face-to-face teaching on the course, which we would love to return to! But with Covid-19 a continuing threat worldwide, and for reasons of accessibility and cost, we have decided to run the course online for another year.

This year we are joined by Beth Malory, who will be running new sessions on discourse analysis and sociolinguistics research. More information and the provisional timetable are available on the Survey website.

Summer School in English Corpus Linguistics 2022 (online)

I am pleased to announce the ninth annual UCL Summer School in English Corpus Linguistics, to be held online from 20-22 June.

The Summer School is a short three-day intensive course aimed at PhD-level students and researchers who wish to get to grips with Corpus Linguistics from the perspective of the ‘Survey Methodology’. Last year we offered a two-day version of the course at a low cost (£99 early bookings/£125) and some 90 participants attended.

This year we have decided to expand back to the three-day programme, and we have kept our price at the same level.

Each day begins with a theory lecture, followed by a guided hands-on workshop with corpora. It is timed to run from 9:00 to 13:00 British Summer Time (GMT+1), to make it accessible for students across Europe, Africa and Asia.

This is a picture of our face-to-face teaching, which we would love to return to! But with Covid-19 a continuing threat worldwide, and for reasons of accessibility and cost, we decided to run the course online for another year.

UCL Summer School in English Corpus Linguistics 2019

I am pleased to announce the seventh annual Summer School in English Corpus Linguistics to be held at University College London from 1-3 July.

The Summer School is a short three-day intensive course aimed at PhD-level students and researchers who wish to get to grips with Corpus Linguistics.

Please note that this course is very popular, and numbers are deliberately limited on a first-come, first-served basis! You will be taught in a small group by a teaching team.

Each day begins with a theory lecture, followed by a guided hands-on workshop with corpora, and a more self-directed and supported practical session in the afternoon.
