Section Title:
Intro to Research Programming
Section Info:
Topic: Intro to Research Programming. Computer programming is an increasingly important component of a research scientist's skill set. The goal of this course is to provide graduate students with the programming skills necessary to independently design experiments and analyze the resulting data. The course is designed to accommodate multiple levels of programming proficiency: students without programming experience will learn to create, read and modify programs, while students with moderate or advanced programming skills will learn to create complex and complete experiments. Students will learn to program using Matlab, a powerful and widespread scientific programming environment. This language is similar to most modern programming languages (e.g. C++, Python), thus the skills acquired in this course would transfer easily to other programming environments. Students will be required to complete short weekly programming assignments and a self-selected final project. The course is open to all psychology graduate students.
