Workshop at Volkswagenstiftung Themenwoche Digitale Kompetenzen in der Wissenschaft

DKZ.2R teamed up with another data literacy center QUADRIGA, NFDIxCS, and NFDI4DS, to host a workshop on the topic of “Research Data and Research Software Competencies from the Perspective of Computer and Data Science” at the Themenwoche Digitale Kompetenzen in der Wissenschaft of the Volkswagenstiftung. Together with a diverse group of 35 participants from different data-literacy initiatives we will explore intersections between projects, present successful educational formats, identify gaps in current educational offerings, and collaboratively create new formats and an overall didactic framework. We are very much looking forward to this workshop week which will happen from the 2nd to 4th of December 2024 at the Xplanatorium in Hannover Herrenhausen.

HPC Series: Python on HPC Clusters

Short description
For May of 2025 we recommend the HPC Series: Python on HPC Clusters course, offered by the Jan Steiner and Shayma Wahdan at University of Bonn. The course will teach you some of the Python-related topics beyond the absolute basics of the language - things you will likely run into as a scientist using Python.

The course is spread over two half-days. It will be held as a hybrid course - both online via Zoom and in person at HRZ (Wegelerstr. 6), room 0.012. The course language is English
