There are three broken links in the univ course programs section. I found the right URLs as follows. Hope they are helpful. 😃

Thanks for your effort!

Thanks for maintaining such an amazing list!

I wonder if it's possible to break the "University Course Programs" section into three subsections: BS, MS, and PhD?

PS: I researched PhD programs in computational social science for my application. I'd like to contribute to this section.

Thank you for compiling this awesome list! Here are a few suggested additions:

• Under Books, you might add the textbook "A First Course in Network Science" by Menczer, Fortunato & Davis (Cambridge University Press, 2020 https://cambridgeuniversitypress.github.io/FirstCourseNetworkScience/). Although it is more about network science than computational social science, it deals extensively with information diffusion, social networks, and data gathering from social media, which are very relevant to computational social science.

• Under Education/University Course Programs, you might list the "Complex Networks and Systems" track of the PhD in Informatics at Indiana University Bloomington (https://informatics.indiana.edu/programs/phd-informatics/complex-networks-and-systems.html). Faculty and graduate students in this program are heavily involved in research in computational social science.

• Under Research Groups, you could list the Center for Complex Networks and Systems Research (https://cnets.indiana.edu/) and the Observatory on Social Media (https://osome.iu.edu/) at IUB.

Thanks!

• Remove the YAML part
• Update the contribution guidelines
• GHA

Possible

• Automatically remove duplicates
• Rewrite it as a pandoc filter

Suggestion to add to the list of books the "Handbook of Computational Social Science for Policy"

Thank you!

URLChecker: 🤔 Uh oh... The following urls did not pass:
❌️ https://web.edu.hku.hk/programme/bsds
❌️ https://github.com/greister/Awesome-Julia

• Digital Humanities Lab at UFBA https://www.labhd.ufba.br/ was temporarily removed because it was flagged:
  [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed @leofn

Thank you for this helpful list!

I suggest adding:

• the Mediterranean School of Complex Networks under section "Education > Workshops".
• the Network Science Institute (NetSI), under section "Research groups"

Suggestion to add the COMPTEXT Conference to the list of conferences.
