Everything to know about Aalto's RSE

For anything related to custom software development, computational research, data management, workflow automation, scaling-up, collaborative work, reproducible research, optimization, high-performance computing, and more, RSE can:

• Do it for you: You need some custom technical software/solution. We do it for you, you get straight to your work.

• Do it with you: We co-work with your group, teaching while we go along.

• Make it reusable: You already have something, but it doesn’t work for others.

Instead of hiring your own intern, postdoc, etc. to struggle with certain issues, RSE can help instead. RSE consists of experienced researchers who have relied heavily on computing technology (programming, computing, data) for our academic work, and thus can seamlessly collaborate on research projects. RSE can also do consultation and training. You will have more impact since your work is more reusable, open, and of higher quality. RSE can work on existing projects or you can write RSE directly into your grant applications.

This service is free for everyone at Aalto thanks to a pilot grant from Aalto IT Services. Member schools/departments have more time allocated and are currently CS, NBE, PHYS, and SCI overall (and others may join).

💬 In case you are interested, please go to RSE's daily garage, every day online at 13:00 (Tuesdays are RSE focus days). Or contact them by email: [email protected] or fill out their request form.
