Waterhackweek is a 5-day hackweek to be held at the University of Washington in partnership with the University of Washington eScience Institute. Participants will learn about open source technologies used to analyze water-related datasets. Mornings will consist of interactive lectures, and afternoon sessions will involve facilitated exploration of datasets and hands-on software development. Successful applicants will pay a $100 registration fee and be expected to cover lodging, travel expenses and some meals. Financial support may be available based on need.
What to expect from WaterHackWeek 2019:
- Peer-learning collaborations
- New skills and tools, including the latest technology and software
- Personalized mentorship from professional data scientists
- Interdisciplinary applications of data tools
- Access to an interactive library of custom tutorials
