Software Carpentry (Python) workshop, 13-16 July 2021
Information about upcoming workshops
Colleagues from Methods@Manchester, the University of Manchester Library, Research IT and Manchester branch of the Software Sustainability Institute are jointly bringing a series of Carpentry workshops to postgraduate students, researchers and staff at Manchester who need to improve their computational and data skills and learn to automate tasks to help with their day to day work.
The Carpentries are an international community that teaches foundational computational, coding, data organisation, analysis and visualisation skills to people in various research, data- and information-related roles with no or minimal prior programming knowledge. Carpentries@Manchester is a local Carpentry community at the University of Manchester that has been running these workshops since 2014.
The workshops are open to all University of Manchester postgraduate students and staff and will be carried online over Zoom over 4 half-days with the following schedule:
Software Carpentry (Python) workshop, 13-16 July 2021
