Are you between 14 and 18 years old and curious about computer science? Join our one-day workshop for beginners, in which you will write your first Computer Vision application in Python.

Are you a curious individual with an eagerness to learn new things? During our one-day workshop, you will be given a glimpse into the blooming field of computer science, with a special focus to empower underrepresented collectives to learn in a safe and comfortable environment.

Computer science is the study of how to manipulate, manage, transform, and encode information. This includes the theory, design, development, and application of software systems. Computer scientists design and analyse algorithms to solve problems and study the performance of computer hardware and software.

Guided by a mentor, you will learn step by step in a small group and write your first Computer Vision application in Python. Do you want to create your first artificial intelligence application in Python? During our workshop, you will use computer vision to derive meaningful information from images and videos and take actions based on that information. You could maybe detect objects or recognize your own actions?

During the workshop breaks, we will give you the opportunity to listen to presentations by underrepresented collectives in the computer science field, providing you with information about their journey and their experiences.

The workshops will be in German, French, Italian, or English. The target audience is between 14 and 18 years of age, but everyone eager to learn is welcome to join (even if you are out of the age range).
