The UBC Scientific Software Seminar brings together students, graduates, fellows and faculty at UBC to develop software skills for science.
We use free open source software in our data science, machine learning and scientific computing projects all the time. And free open source software exists because of the efforts of many people working collaboratively. The goal of this seminar is to gain the skills required to become contributors to the open source software projects we use everyday. Everyone is invited!
- To master Git for version control
- To master GitHub for collaborative software development
- To confidently search GitHub for projects, engage thoughtfully on the issues and make pull requests to fix issues
- To become regular contributors to open source software projects
Our open source software seminar meets every Thursday 4-5pm in LSK 121. Please join the UBCS3 mailing list to receive weekly updates about the seminar.
