LaTeX is a free document creation alternative to MS Word. It is the standard for writing in many STEM fields and offers advantages for managing references, typesetting math, inserting graphics and figures, and much more. In this workshop, you will create a LaTeX document using Overleaf, and practice using some core LaTeX features.
By the end of the session, participants should be able to:
- Access LaTeX on their computer via Overleaf
- Create a simple LaTeX document
- Insert equations, figures, and tables
- Insert references and create a bibliography
- Identify resources and templates for writing journal articles, theses, and more in LaTeX
No previous knowledge of LaTeX is required. Participants should bring their own computer. Several UT libraries loan laptops.
This workshop is being held in the Engineering and Computer Science Library Classroom (inside SF2402, Room 2401C)
