Towards Reproducible Research in Arts, Humanities, and Cultures

Join the Open Research team at this in-person event on Tuesday 4th Nov 2025, 10:30am – 1:00pm in Edward Boyle Library, the level 7 conference room (directions: Go through the main entrance on Level 9, through the barriers, turn left towards the double lifts, and take the stairs down to Level 7.)

Reproducibility remains one of the most pressing challenges in research, especially where quantitative methods are involved. This training session will equip researchers in AHC with essential strategies and practical tools to improve reproducibility in day-to-day work (no coding skills required).

Participants will gain a clear understanding of what reproducibility means, why it matters, and how to embed it into everyday research practices. From file organisation and tidy data to robust protocols and documentation, the session will cover every step in the research process with reproducibility in mind.

Whether you’re coding video analysis or analysing large corpus datasets, this session is designed to help you future-proof your research and foster better, more reliable research.

This workshop was developed in collaboration with the UK Reproducibility Network (UKRN) and during this session, we'll be joined by Scott McLaughlin and Scott Bannister (School of Music), and Adalberto Di Corato (Library)

This course is suitable for everyone, but primarily any researcher, research student or professional services staff in the Faculty of Arts, Humanities, and Cultures who would like to upskill in reproducible research practices. No prior skills or knowledge is needed.
