28.03.2023 Announcement: HeFDI Code School 'Sustainable Research Software'

The HeFDI Code School adresses the need of especially early career researchers on learning how to create good scientific software and increase the quality of their code for better reusability and sustainability.

HeFDI Code School 'Sustainable Research Software'

Scientific software is in many disciplines crucial for understanding and reusing research data and a cornerstone for reproducibility of research results. Although many researchers require programming skills, systematic training outside of computer science courses rarely takes place.

This HeFDI Code School series adresses the need of especially early career researchers on learning how to create good scientific software and increase the quality of their code for better reusability and sustainability.

Together with the colleagues from Suresoft project and NFDI4Ing we offer a series of four workshops.

Participants of these workshops will learn

  • methods and techniques to increase the quality of their code,
  • how to produce understandable and therefore reusable code,
  • and to increase the sustainability of scientific software.

These workshops are intended for researchers who already have experience with developing scientific software, and therefore require general knowledge of a programming language and a merely basic understanding of object-oriented programming and versioning.

Everything you need to know about the workshops and the requirements that go along with them can be found under the following link.
