LaTeX Traning Seminar for Science &Engineering
Aug 30: 3 – 5 pm
Others session TBD
Have you ever asked: Why won’t Word format my paper the way I need it to? Is there a better
way? Then this class is for you! LaTeX is a high-quality typesetting system, with features designed
for the production of technical and scientific documentation. The Introduction to LaTeX sessions
are hands-on classes covering the basics of using LaTeX, including the use of graphics and
creating bibliographies. LaTeX Classes are sponsored by the Georgia Tech Library &Information
Center and Graduate Student Government.
MATLAB: Data Analysis and Visualization for Scientists &Engineers

This workshop will introduce MATLAB's interactive tools and command-line functions. Topics to be
discussed include assigning variables from the command-line, importing data from files, generating
plots, basic curve fitting, using the curve fitting toolbox, and writing simple scripts and functions.
While everyone is welcome to join us for this hands-on training, it is intended for those with little to
no prior experience with MATLAB. Research Guide for the class: http://libguides.gatech.edu/matlab
Productivity Tools for Graduate Students
Sept. 19: 11:00 am – 12:30 pm
Oct. 29: 9:00 am – 10:30 am
Graduate students and researchers are bombarded every day with an overwhelming collection of
