The\u00a0Research Computing and Data Science<\/a>\u00a0team are in the process of commissioning and collating\u00a0a series of exemplar programming projects known as\u00a0ReCoDE<\/a>. These projects are designed to demonstrate good programming practice in research to help other students learn by example and include extensive annotation to explain their function and the design choices made.<\/p>\n

We generally welcome any submission, but we are looking to commission a particular submission in the form of a LaTeX template for an Imperial doctoral thesis<\/strong>. This template should match all of Imperial’s thesis requirements and should not be overly complicated, such that a relatively inexperienced LaTeX user would have the background to understand it. The basic skeleton of the thesis and the formatting required to meet Imperial’s requirements should be the focus, but other useful pieces of LaTeX may also be demonstrated.\u00a0 This template does not need extensive research content, but could include some if it helps to demonstrate the formatting tools used.<\/p>\n

If you are interested in working on this exemplar, more information on contributing can be found\u00a0here<\/a>. Click on the “Pitch an exemplar here” button at the bottom of that page to submit a proposal. The next round of exemplars will be selected in the autumn, and we will review all proposals before reaching out to selected applicants to complete the exemplar over three months in the autumn term.<\/p>\n

Authors of exemplar are paid as GTAs (or Casual Workers) for 45 hours of work at a rate of \u00a335.78\/hour, including holiday pay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
