Hosted by the GC Digital Fellows and part of the GC Digital Initiatives, the GC Digital Research Institute (GC DRI) is a 5-days intensive training course where participants learn core digital research skills while connecting with peers in an interdisciplinary environment. Participants will attend a series of remote sessions from Jan 19 – Jan 21 and Jan 24 – Jan 25, 2022 to develop basic digital research skills and connect with others in an interdisciplinary context.

Building on the success of prior Digital Research Institutes, GC DRI combines training in areas such as the command line, data literacies, R, and Python with more specialized workshops and professional development sessions. Participants will come together to share their own research goals, collaborate on a shared project, and present what they have learned in a casual but challenging setting.

Free of charge to participants and open to all members of the Graduate Center community, the GC DRI is developed in partnership with Software Carpentry, the New York Public Library, Mozilla Science Lab, Humanities Intensive Learning and Teaching, and the Digital Humanities Summer Institute.
