Workshops
Workshops
In the academic year of 2023-2024, we will be hosting a series of workshops in term 1 and 2. Each workshop will be approximately 2 hours long, on campus. This will aim to guide members who have an interest in data science and machine learning from beginners to being able to apply state of the art deep learning models.
Did we mention there will be free pizza at the workshops?
