D-Lab offers drop-in workshops for faculty, instructors, and teaching teams who want to bring data, methods, and digital research skills into their courses or programs.
These sessions are especially useful for methods courses, research seminars, lab groups, and project-based classes. We can work with you to design a workshop that fits your students’ level, your course goals, and the kinds of data or tools most relevant to your field.
We can support topics such as:
-
data analysis in Python or R
-
AI and LLM workflows for research and teaching
-
qualitative and quantitative research workflows
-
text analysis and natural language processing
-
data visualization
-
survey design
-
geospatial methods
-
research data management and reproducible workflows
Drop-In workshops can be introductory or more advanced, and we can often tailor examples or datasets to your discipline or assignment context.
Good fit for:
-
methods courses
-
capstone or project-based courses
-
graduate seminars
-
research labs and faculty groups
-
departments or programs looking to build shared methodological capacity
Why request a drop-in workshop?
A drop-in session allows students to learn methods in direct relation to their own research questions, course assignments, and disciplinary context. This can make workshops more immediately useful than a general training session and helps students connect technical skills to real academic work.
