Target Group
Doctoral and postdoctoral researchers from all departments at BTU with an interest in developing their data science projects. The participants have obtained key insights into data science in R in previous courses.
Description
The Data Science Research Lab is designed to help participants develop their own data science research projects, leveraging the understanding of data science in R obtained in previous courses. This workshop series begins with a brief project identification session, followed by hands-on focus workshops for in-depth development, and is complemented by additional office hours for individual support.
Key Components of the Data Science Research Lab are:
1. Project Identification Workshop
The participants identify relevant topics and projects, briefly presenting their ideas and discussing fundamental requirements, possible approaches, and any open questions with eoda coaches.
2. Focus
The previously selected or defined topics are developed practically. The focus is on the concrete application and further development of the learned content.
3. Additional support and advice
To ensure the sustainable implementation of workshop content, the eoda coaches offer individual support to discuss challenges and receive practical support even after the workshops.
Objectives
This workshop aims to integrate the developed concepts and methods into participants’ daily work. Additionally, the workshop provides an opportunity to clarify specific questions and advance individual initiatives.
