IT is pleased to host a special 2 hour course created just for Berkeley Lab scientists and program managers designed to help you get
the most out of your software development projects and avoid common pitfalls. The course will take place Monday March 4 from 2-4pm in Perseverance Hall.
Whether you’re in an early stage, or already responsible for a large development effort within your area, this course will share concepts, tips, and horror stories that will hopefully help you to give your projects the best chance of success. The focus of the course is on managing software development projects for science, not actual coding or development.
The course will be taught by the founder of the nonprofit Software Carpentry Foundation, which works to help scientists grow their
computational faculties. Greg Wilson, the founder and teacher, has decades of experience working to help scientists and coding teams be successful.
The course was designed with input from LBNL IT and NERSC and informed by Greg’s many years of experience. There is no charge for this course, which is provided as part of IT’s commitment to help LBNL researchers compute and collaborate more effectively.
