Repository of materials for SICSS-Edinburgh, 2023.
- Main Room: Lister Learning and Teaching Centre (LLTC) Room 1.16
- Breakout rooms: LG.06, LG.08 & LG.09
During Week 1, days are split into morning and afternoon training sessions in various computational methods. Each day then ends with a dedicated research talk.
Note that on June 15 we will be holding our official launch event for the Social Data Science Hub. We expect you all to attend and ask that you sign up here. This will be a chance for you to meet others working in this field, as well as our keynote speaker, Arthur Spirling from NYU.
Given that you won't have any instruction on this day, we may hold a catch-up review session in the Monday of Week 2.
During Week 2, we will be working on either:
- Collaborative group projects selected from a list provided by instructors
- Your own group project idea
We will provide a set of groups project ideas that have been suggested by your instructors or other members of Edinburgh Social Science/Informatics Faculty. The idea is that you work on these within your groups with advice from your instructor.
