This study provides a comprehensive reference for language and linguistics researchers focused on research within STEM education. The research has three key objectives: to analyze trends in learner corpus research related to STEM education, identify critical areas within this domain, and uncover major challenges faced by researchers. This study examines the publications concerned with STEM education through a bibliometric methodology, based on data provided by the Scopus database, and displaying the outcomes with the use of VOSViewer software. By articulating intricate information in a clear and scholarly way, this study is a substantial source for those researchers concerned with articulating scholarship in the field of STEM education. It also deepens the understanding of current research trends and extends the present concordance in STEM education through bibliometric methods. This study highlights an increasing interest in the field of STEM education, which deserves a deeper probe. The bibliometric outcome could serve as a foundational reference for future researchers involved in meta-analysis and systematic literature review studies. In addition, this study identifies the prevailing research gaps, which indicate the need for further research, especially in academic environments. Future studies could examine journals indexed across more databases to enhance understanding of the metadata, offering insights for researchers, practitioners, funders, and policymakers regarding current and future research directions.
