The LINC-STEM committee is proud to present this year’s edition of the Beginner Python workshop!
See the bottom of this description for the (mandatory) sign-up form.
Computer programming has become a highly sought-after skill that affects every aspect of the financial landscape. And that is why we encourage students from all disciplines (Science, Engineering, Economics, Finance, Business, Mathematics, etc.) to sign up.
This 5-week course is free and open to every student attending Lund University regardless of faculty and is ideal for people with no or minimal coding experience. If you are a complete beginner and you know nothing about coding, don’t worry: we will start from the very basics and later on introduce you to financial data management, data analysis, data visualization, and automated stock analysis!
We start from scratch on the first workshop, introducing you to Python, how to operate the programming environment, and the basics of coding. To help you learn, we have our own Canvas page and Slack channel for asking questions as well as a wealth of exercises with full solutions. Everyone who passes the exam or re-exam receives a certificate that can be posted on, e.g., LinkedIn.
