This course aims to teach a core set of established, intermediate-level software development skills and best practices for working as part of a team in a research environment using Python as an example programming language. It focusses on researchers from the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) domain as it uses the dataset from the river catchment study project but is general enough to be attended by participants without this specialism.
