Digital Design - IT, Aesthetics and Interaction

This course aims at introducing the basic concepts and techniques of coding to absolute beginners – no prior knowledge of programming, math, or science is required! From a pedagogical point of view, the course is based on Computational Thinking, a creative problem-solving approach that can be applied in a multitude of problems (with or without programming).

Sino-Danish Center, Neuroscience

The aim of this course is to provide the student with a basic foundation in scientific computing. After the course the student is able to write simple algorithms, including loops, functions, and conditional statements, and to apply them to efficient analysis of neuroscientific data. The Python programming environment, which is used for signal and image processing in subsequent courses of the education, is introduced through practical exercises.  

The course was offered as part of the Master’s programme in neuroscience and neuroimaging
