Description
With the role of the Research Software Engineer in the academic landscape now better defined, it is time to ask the question to a broader audience of how can we adapt traditional Software Engineering practices to most effectively fit the needs of the research community. What differentiates researchers who write code from RSEs? How do their aims, drivers and motivations differ and how does this affect the application of technical skills? Can we, indeed do we need to, change the way traditional software skills are applied in order to more effectively support the RSE domain? Research is becoming increasingly reliant on digital skills and infrastructure but we won’t be able to capitalise on their capabilities if we don’t ensure that they are used correctly. The teachingRSE project together with EVERSE aims to have a discussion among a diverse set of participants on how to adapt SE practices for domain researchers and software professionals working within the research community.
