China Visit
In the latter part of July Rob and Jamsheed took part in an Australia-China Science and Research Fund (ACSRF) sponsored visit to Beijing, China, to teach a series of courses on Computational Social Science.
Courses were offered at Beihang University (also taught with Prof. Lexing Xie and Dr Paul Thomas, both at the Australian National University) and Tsinghua University (taught by Rob). The opportunity afforded students and instructors alike the chance to help define and expand the rapidly growing field of Computational Social Science.
