Introduction to Scientific Computing Course 2025

Join us this November to study an introduction to scientific computing with the National Centre for Atmospheric Science! Click here to learn more: https://ncas.ac.uk/study-with-us/intr...

The Introduction to Scientific Computing (ISC) course covers the skills needed to start using the Linux Shell and Python in environmental science research. The course is designed for complete beginners as well as those with a little experience who wish to further their knowledge. Some prerequisite Python knowledge is necessary to study the “Python Programming – Working with Data” module. On the final day of the “Working with Data” module there will be two parallel sessions focussing, respectively, on the use of atmospheric science data and earth observation data. Students may join either session depending on their own learning needs and preferences.

The course is taught as a series of hands-on workshops. Students may register for the whole course as a package or individual modules to suit their own learning needs.

The course will also provide you with the necessary experience to attend our other courses:
