The GC Digital Research Institute (GCDRI)

Jan 18th – Jan 20th and Jan 23rd – Jan 24th, 2023

Application due: Monday November 28th, 2022, at 11:59pm.

Are you interested in using digital tools in your research, but don’t know where to start? Do you want to learn more about digital technologies in a supportive group of your peers?

The GC Digital Research Institute (DRI) is an introduction to core digital research skills that can be applied widely to different kinds of projects.This institute is catered towards building foundational skills and will be paced accordingly to ensure those who are new will leave feeling more confident in their skills. DRI is designed for beginning learners—those who have little or no prior experience working with a programming language. The GC Digital Research Institute provides an introduction to computational thinking, vocabularies, and foundational concepts so that participants can develop the necessary skills to become an autonomous learner.

This year, the DRI will take the form of remote sessions from Jan 18th – Jan 20th and Jan 23rd – Jan 24th, 2023, where participants will develop basic digital research skills and connect with others in an interdisciplinary context.

Participation is free, and open to graduate students, faculty, and staff at the Graduate Center; however, applications are required. All levels of experience are welcome. Applications are due by 11:59 pm on Monday, November 28th, 2022. More information about previous institutes and what to expect as well as a link to the application can be found on the GC DRI website: https://gcdri.commons.gc.cuny.edu/.
