Capacity building for EBL: development and deployment of training courses for staff and students
Based on the project team’s past experience (particularly with teaching the interdisciplinary bioinformatics and bio-health informatics masters courses and the undergraduate level first-year CS tutorial module), they believe that EBL provides significant advantages for interdisciplinary teaching. The School of Computer Science is therefore keen to deploy EBL widely within the new masters programme it is currently developing – Computing for Scientists (CfS). This masters programme is designed to 1) develop generic computing and quantitative skills for scientists from a wide range of backgrounds; and 2) provide more specialist training on specific computing skills required within particular subject areas. The course would therefore be suitable, for example, for biologists who wish to develop mathematical and computational skills, or medically trained scientists who wish to develop specialist health informatics skills.
