Introduction to Programming with Python

This workshop with Ireneu Pla introduces basic programming concepts to graduate students, with practical applications for social science research in Python. You will learn how to design and implement your coding project systematically, and how to resolve (inevitable) errors independently. The workshop is for absolute beginners who would like to use Python in their research projects, but some contents are transferable to other languages such as R.

This workshop will take place online:

  • Weekly on Tuesday, from 29 September until 17 November 2020, 18:00-21:00

Ireneu Pla is a data engineer specialised in artificial intelligence. He has a background in Computer Science, obtained at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL), and an interest in data taken early in his studies. He has worked in Switzerland and Singapore on innovation projects with startups, big companies, sports institutions, and the public sector.
