In order to give you a bit more time where we are available to help, we have set up an extra coding session on Monday. This group is meant for both groups, so you can come regardless of whether you belong to the Wednesday group or the Thursday group. We hope the time fits for most of you. You can send me questions you want me to go through for everyone, otherwise you will be given coding time with the possibility for one-on-one help.

Location: Shell (first floor, Ole-Johan Dahls hus), in the opposite direction of the cafeteria.

Time: Monday 22., 16:15-18:00

The groups will be formed, and we will get ready for the technical part of the course. Please bring your laptop (if you have one) to the seminar!

Are you considering taking the SIFI 2000 course and wondering about what you will learn? Here is a little more information about what we will do throughout the autumn semester:

During the first four weeks you will get hands-on experience with how digital technology works: You will get a taste of what programming is like and learn some fundamental principles. You will also learn to extract and work with data as well as get a basic understanding of how Large Language Models (which are used in e.g., ChatGPT) actually works and how they can be used well.

Then we will start to examine how digital technology impacts us, first as individuals and then as members of organizations or societies. For many of use, our personal lives are deeply influenced by gaming, online socializing (e.g., dating), and communication with AI chatbots. Perhaps you have experienced technostress or tried ...

SIFI2000 is part of the Digitalization Certificate. If you are admitted to the certificate, you will automatically be enrolled in SIFI2000. The course will be open to individual course students starting on August 19. Please note that September 1 is the final deadline to apply for courses with available spots.
