About Software Workouts

Software Workouts is a bi-weekly community-driven seminar hosted at the University of British Columbia on scientific computing techniques and best practices. The seminar has been active since fall 2014 and is designed in part as an extension to Software Carpentry. Most of the material presented has direct connections to the research pursued by the participants. To receive emails about upcoming Workouts, please contact Dr. Susan Allen.

Schedule

We meet every other Monday at noon in room 5106 of the UBC Earth Sciences Building
