New in 2021! We are pleased to bring to the UCF Research community a series of workshops on scientific computing and research data management. These workshops are being jointly presented by UCF Libraries, UCF Graduate and Research IT, and UCF Advanced Research Computing Center (ARCC) and will feature some guest speakers from the broader research community. This series also includes Software and Data Carpentries workshops (http://carpentries.org) which have been made possible through the sponsorship of Dr. Elizabeth Klonoff, Vice President for Research and Dean, College of Graduate Studies.

The workshops are targeted to faculty, post-docs and student researchers and will be especially useful for those who are new to computational science and interested in learning about the resources available to them at UCF and beyond. Topics span the areas of research data management, high-performance computing, and programming for scientific analysis and will feature some sessions with hands-on learning.

The April 7 session details are:

Title: Foundations of Data Management: Maximizing the Impact of Your Data

Location: Online Session, please see registration link for details.

Description: Citation metrics provides useful quantitative data regarding the impact of a scholar's research. Learning how to maximize your reach using tools like Web of Science, Google Metrics, ORCID, ResearchGate, and Academia.edu among others, doesn't have to be as daunting of a task as it first appears. This session will cover information on how to evaluate citation metrics as well as provide tips on how to manage your online research profiles.

Presenters: Ven Basco and Sarah Norris, UCF Libraries
