Training
Due to the current situation with COVID-19 and the University being closed to face-to-face meetings and teaching, our courses will take place online. Participants will be notified about arrangements via email.
ARC offers a range of training courses that enable researcher to professionally write, manage and run their research codes. In the current portfolio, there are courses on Python programming, version control with git and Github, machine learning and data analysis, and using a supercomputer. The portfolio is planned to be expanded in the following years. If there are any courses you’d like to see us provide, please get in touch. We also plan to organise courses with external trainers.
Sign-up for the ARC courses is managed using the DCAD course booking system (just select “Advanced Research Computing” as course provider in your search).
