Online Workshop “Research Methods in Terminology.”
Online Workshop “Research Methods in Terminology.”
Hungarian Association of Applied Linguists and Language Teachers, Terminology Section, in cooperation with AILA Europe, hosts the online workshop “Research Methods in Terminology”.
This online workshop invites researchers, doctoral students and practitioners to explore and discuss methodological approaches to terminology research across disciplines. As an inherently interdisciplinary field, terminology research draws on linguistics, translation studies, corpus linguistics, knowledge representation, and the digital humanities. This workshop aims to provide a forum for reflecting on established and emerging research methods, their theoretical grounding and their practical applications.
We particularly welcome contributions that critically engage with research design, data collection, analysis, and interpretation in terminology-related studies.
Topics of interest include:
Qualitative and quantitative methods in terminology research
Corpus-based and corpus-driven approaches to terminology
Terminology extraction, annotation and evaluation methods
Methodological issues in multilingual and contrastive terminology research
Methods in terminography and terminology management
Use of digital tools, AI, and NLP in terminology research
Abstracts of approximately 200 words should be submitted via Google Form by 15 March 2026.
