After outlining the main features required for a professional academic website, the instructors will provide step-by-step instructions for creating such a website using a basic template. After completing the workshop, participants should have the required skills to set up their own, more sophisticated academic website.

This workshop is directed to PhD students and early career researchers with previous R coding experience. We strongly recommend that interested participants attend the Connected_Politics Lab workshop on “Reproducible Research with Git and GitHub” on 16 October, which covers the fundamentals of version control and GitHub.
