Introduction to LaTeX with Overleaf

Introduction to LaTeX with Overleaf

Come learn how to get started with this popular coding tool for writing technical papers! LaTeX (pronounced Lay-tech or Lah-tech) is a free typesetting system designed for technical publications that can be used for many writing projects.

Be ready to code along with the instructor during this interactive workshop while you learn:

  • How to create your first article
  • How to add content including text, figures and citations
  • Where to learn more about using LaTeX
  • How to get the most out of Overleaf

Participants are encouraged to sign up for an Overleaf account prior to the workshop using their VT email address. All are welcome to attend no matter your field or LaTeX experience level!

This session will be offered live via Zoom and will be recorded and sent out afterwards to all who register. While we encourage attendance during the live virtual session so that you can interact with the instructor and ask questions, you're welcome to sign up for the session to receive the recording of it afterwards even if you can't attend it live. 

If you are an individual with a disability and desire an accommodation, welcome! Please email lisab5@vt.edu at least 10 business days prior to the event.
