The Centre for Literary and Linguistic Computing

Director: Professor Hugh Craig

Welcome to the Centre for Literary and Linguistic Computing (CLLC), a unit within the Faculty of Education and Arts in the University of Newcastle. The Centre was established to continue the development and application of statistical and computing tools for the analysis of (literary) texts.

We undertake research funded by the University and outside bodies. Collaborative projects with outside bodies can be undertaken if suitable funding is available.

Students interested in doing postgraduate research in areas covered by the Centre should send an email to: research@newcastle.edu.au
