Technology Libraries course timetable

Searching for literature is an important part of the research process - whether you are scoping out a project, or conducting a full literature search.

This session will introduce techniques for planning your searches, places to search for information, and techniques you can use to find the most relevant results.

Research ethics and research integrity are serious issues. All researchers should consider the ethical context of the research being carried out and be able to justify decisions to the wider academic community.

This session aims to help you get think about the ethical considerations of your research by introducing you to the Department of Engineering ethical review process and investigating some case study scenarios.

There is an increased emphasis on managing and sharing data produced in research. Many of the research funders supporting work at the University of Cambridge require that research data are openly available with as few restrictions as possible.

Research data management is a complex issue, but done correctly from the start, could save you a lot of time and hassle at the end of the project; when preparing your data for a publication or writing up your thesis. Research data takes many forms, ranging from measurements, numbers and images to documents and publications.

This session aims to help you get started with managing your data by introducing you to key principles around organising, storing, archiving and sharing your data. You will also learn how to create your own Data Management Plan.

Conference posters are a simple, visual, and effective way of sharing your research. They may be presented at academic or professional conferences, Departmental events, or educational events for the general public. A well-designed poster allows you to communicate information about your work in a concise and appealing manner, and engage with colleagues, peers and others in a conversational setting.

Creating a conference poster is a balancing act between including enough detail to effectively describe your work, and keeping it visually attractive and minimal enough that people can understand at least the main points at a glance.

This module will help you create effective conference posters and introduce key design principles.

Presentations are a key way to share your research/work and the ability to present well is an important skill in terms of future employment both within the professional or academic fields.

This session is designed to support Computer Science Part IB students in preparation of Video Presentations for their Group Projects. We will focus on helping you to let your key points stand out, how to use/design slides and/or accompanying resources well and presenting with confidence and clarity.
