The structured tutorials offered during the hack week will introduce good programming practices, scientific programming languages (e.g. Python and R), as well as tools and software applicable to astronomy research.

The unconference sessions and lightning talks will offer participants the opportunity to shape the content of the workshop and can be used for example to work through online tutorials in groups, or present tips and tricks and new tools to the other participants.

And of course there will be plenty of time to work on a 'hack project', so come with something in mind or join another group. The hack sessions will allow you to put concepts learned during the tutorials into practice and give you the space and time to implement that new idea or feature you've been meaning to work on, or try out a new concept/ testing protocol/ version control/ etc.
