CRC Workshops

The Center for Research Computing is committed to our mission of training and education. Every semester, we offer a series of workshops presented by our research faculty consultant team, covering both the fundamentals of using CRC resources and a range of advanced computing topics and skills. At the beginning of every semester, we offer out CRC Ecosystem On-ramp workshop, covering the essentials of starting to work on CRC clusters.

See the side menu for this semester’s workshops, bioinformatics workshops and archives of older workshops. 

We also offer weekly hybrid office hours, in person at our office in Schenley Place, or virtually on Zoom. Every Friday from noon to 1pm, a CRC team member will be available for in-person or virtual queries. No Help Tickets or email necessary to get immediate, live access to the deep experience of the CRC team. If one consultant doesn't have your answer, they will put you in touch with a consultant who does.
