Join UT Libraries this August for an Immersive Python Workshop! Held in Perry-Castañeda Library (PCL)'s Scholars Lab, Data Lab, this in-person, three-day workshop is open to all UT Austin students, faculty, and researchers—no prior experience with Python is required. The beginner-friendly workshop kicks off with an introduction to Python, followed by breakout tracks where participants can explore specific applications—geospatial analysis, sentiment analysis, or data visualization. The workshop wraps by walking participants through the process of openly sharing code using GitHub and introduces AI tools that can be used to help with code development. The workshop format alternates between short tutorials and hands-on exercises. Participants are encouraged to support one another and apply what they learn to their own research problems during and between sessions.
