LING6092 2026-27
Corpus Linguistics for Language Teaching
The module introduces the foundations of corpus linguistics and the role of corpus linguistics in language teaching, which plays an increasingly important role in TESOL. The theoretical underpinnings of data-driven learning and diverse applications of corpus linguistics in language teaching are explored. The module will also enable students to gain practical skills in using corpora and corpus tools to increase their language awareness and inform their language teaching practices and materials. -

Corpus Linguistics: Working with large-scale text data
In this module, we introduce corpus linguistics as an approach to and method for analysing large-scale text data. We will develop an understanding of building and curating datasets, annotating data, and using quantitative and statistical measures for text analysis. We will explore the uses, advantages and disadvantages of applying semi-automated methods in research. As we move through the module, we will experience each step of the process of doing research with large-scale text data, considering the choices we make in research and how we can justify them in light of our aims. -

Cosmology and the Early Universe
Modern cosmology is a fascinating and fast-developing field, with intense research activity fuelled by major discoveries made in the last decade. These have overturned our understanding of the Universe’s properties and established a new standard cosmological model that, however, poses challenging puzzles for fundamental physics, such as the nature of Dark Matter, the current acceleration of the Universe’s expansion and the occurrence of an inflationary stage in the first moments of the Universe. The course will draw upon a diverse range of core physics material as well as introducing new physics; it will not require specialist astronomical knowledge. -

Counselling skills in genomics for health care professionals
This module gives an introduction to the theory and practice of genomic counselling. It will equip students with the knowledge, communication and counselling skills, appropriate attitudes and behaviours towards the diagnosis and management of patients whose care will be influenced by genomic investigations.
Given the interactive nature of the module, in-person attendance is essential for successful completion of the module. -
