In this hands-on workshop, participants will learn the basics of web scraping using Python. We will explore how to extract data from websites, navigate HTML structures, and work with popular web scraping libraries. The session will also cover best practices, including respecting website terms of service and handling potential challenges. By the end of the workshop, attendees will have the foundational skills to start building their own web scraping projects. Because we won’t have time to cover all the fundamentals, some basic Python knowledge is required.

Registration for workshops is limited to students, faculty, and staff who are affiliated with the CUNY Graduate Center. Please note that you might need to log in to CUNY Academic Commons to be able to RSVP.
