Past Events

Join us for a virtual informational session about federal funding agency policy changes going into effect in 2025 that may impact your research. We will cover the expanded sharing requirements for outputs of federally funded research, describe where researchers can find more information, and highlight the resources that are available at UT Austin to assist with compliance. We will discuss the commonalities and differences among individual research funding agency plans, and we’ll be able to answer questions you have about specific funders.

In this talk, Dr. Claus Wilke will argue that contributing to a major open source project is one of the best ways to gain this experience. He will use as an example his path to contributing to and eventually becoming a core contributor to the ggplot2 project, and will outline simple steps and best practices to follow for anybody who is new to the world of open source software development and would like to make a contribution.

Join the UT Libraries and UT Open Source Program Office on Tuesday, May 13th for an in-depth discussion of open scholarship. We will be covering all of the major facets of open scholarship from open data and open source software to open access publishing. Join us in the PCL Scholars Lab from 10:00am to 2:00pm to learn about open scholarship resources, relevant services available to UT researchers, and best practices. Lunch will be provided.

If you are working on a research impact plan, such as NSF broader impacts, and are seeking new resources and partners, join us for a panel discussion and tabling fair.

This event will feature information about computing services offered by Enterprise Technology, OVPRSCE, the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC), and UT Libraries at the University of Texas at Austin. We will highlight research computing services with information relating access procedures, pricing structure, and other pertinent details like storage timeframes, compute power, and special features of the service to you, our graduate students and research faculty. We will also hear from two of our faculty and staff teams on active research computing projects. When: Friday, April 4th from 10am to 12pm Where: PCL Scholars Lab Data Lab & on Zoom The summit will be a hybrid event that will take place in-person at the Perry-Castañeda Library and will stream live as a Zoom virtual session. Please sign up to attend using the event registration form. Please plan on participating and learning more about the research computing services available to you. An open Q&A session will be held for all participants. Light refreshment will be provided.
