Schedule
The first week material will take place downtown at the UBC Robson Street campus. Event rooms at this location will be clarified in the tables below. Though it should be straightforward to find event rooms, a UBC Robson floor plan is available. The lecture syllabus provides more detailed information on the material covered in first week lectures, and the GitHub repository for the workshop contains lecture notes and associated materials.
