If you are a researcher or visiting scholar at the University of Michigan and would like to learn more about corpus analysis and share findings from your own corpus-based research, you may be interested in joining our Corpus Analysis Group.
The MCL team frequently provide introductions to corpus analysis and training in the use of corpus tools for scholars visiting the ELI and also in writing classes offered in the English Language Institute. There are opportunities for researchers to benefit from these resources through the ELI Visiting Scholar Programs.
This is a project to explore the factors involved in the measurement of repeated word sequences in language sampled from a range of corpora.
The projects on this page provide examples of the kinds of research carried out by the researchers in the MCL team relating to a broad range of issues in academic discourse analysis and corpus and applied linguistics.
Here are a few links to online-searchable corpora, useful corpus tools and corpus projects that might be of interest.
