From the 9th of Sept you will notice a change in how you sign into MathWorks products such as MATLAB and Simulink.

Dependency tracking is one of the tasks that it is easy to forget to do, and yet is important for code of any lasting significance. GitHub has tools available to help you keep up to date to avoid unsupported dependencies and vulnerabilities. Anyone producing code at the University is encouraged to take advantage of these tools so problems due to upstream code are addressed more rapidly.

Are you an NVivo user? A new version of the qualitative data analysis package is now available to the University community so let us know if you want to update!

At the end of March, members of our Research Software Engineering (RSE) team ran a Carpentries-style training course for environmental science researchers in how to create research software. Could we offer something similar to YOUR PhD students and early career researchers?

Apply now to learn about best practices in software development – especially if you already code but Virtual Environments, Testing, and Continuous Integration seem like advanced techniques to you.

The University has once again renewed the license to allow the download and install of the full suite of MATLAB products on to both staff and students’ own, or University provided, computers.

Over the last 12 months, the Research Application Support team has worked on over 350 support tickets from researchers across the University. Many are very much business as usual but some of them can be quite tricky or fun to work on.

The University has renewed its Mathcad Prime license for another year.  Find out how this affects you.

Do you use Maple? Never heard of it? We know that Maple is well used by our UG community but we’d like to find out more about its use (or not!) by researchers through our very quick survey.

We want to make sure that the training we request from external providers meets the need of the University research community. This time we are asking about Wolfram Research Mathematica training.
