Udayana University’s Strategic Collaboration with Oxford University: A Landmark in International Research and Academic Excellence

Udayana University (Unud), represented by the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (MIPA), is actively pursuing a collaboration with a prestigious university. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has been formally signed between Udayana University and the esteemed Oxford University in England. This significant international research partnership with the world’s top-ranked university is indeed a reason to celebrate. It promises to enhance the visibility and reputation of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, particularly the Informatics Study Program, and Udayana University on a global scale.

The research project, spanning two years, also enjoys substantial financial support from the British government. The involvement of Dr. Cokorda Rai Adi Pramartha, a distinguished faculty member and researcher from the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences’ Informatics Study Program, is a testament to the university’s commitment to its Key Performance Indicators (IKU), notably IKU 3 (faculty engagement beyond the campus) and IKU 6 (partnerships with world-class institutions).

Doing language sciences in the digital age – by Gede Primahadi W. Rajeg

Gede Primahadi Wijaya Rajeg, PhD (website) was invited to give a guest lecture under the theme: Doing Language Sciences in the Digital Age at the English Study Program, Faculty of Foreign Languages, Mahasaraswati University, Denpasar. 

The lecture was targeted at the fourth- and six-semester undergraduate students at the Program. The first part of the lecture provided a brief overview of linguistics and its sub-areas. The second part of the lecture discussed how students’ linguistic research project can take advantages of the technological advances characterising the field of corpus linguistics, particularly the availability of large collection of digitalised texts (i.e. language corpora) and the retrieved quantitative information from analysing large dataset from corpora; this was illustrated with a number of simple case studies around the word’s usages on the basis of data from the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA) and the Coronavirus Corpus (webpage). You can download the slides and watch the recording from below.

Coding untuk anak Sastra? Perlu banget!

CIRHSS Deputy Secretary, Gede Primahadi Wijaya Rajeg, Ph.D., gave a guess talk at BIT School about the benefits of coding/computing skill and data science in Language Sciences. Gede presented three simple cases to illustrate the interaction of computational and data science skills using R for investigating language and texts.

  1. Generating a frequency list of words from hundreds of text files, followed by
    1. Extracting full-reduplication words
    2. Performing summary statistics for the length of the letters in the reduplication
    3. Visualising the results
