Overview

The R summer camp provides an introduction to R, a common programming language to analyze data used across many disciplines in research and teaching at 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ as well as to Quarto (a typesetting language useful for producing documents combining code, text, images and equations). These very useful and powerful tools for (social) scientific research have a somewhat steep learning curve, even in the advent of AI-assisted tools. This workshop is intended to help you getting you up a good part of that learning curve.

  • Day 1: Introduction to the basics of R and the graphical user interface RStudio

  • Day 2: Working with data (cleaning, pre-processing, dealing with missing values)

  • Day 3: Visualizing data and producing graphs

  • Day 4: Statistical prequel and more tips and tricks on working with R

  • Day 5: Typesetting using Quarto and RStudio Add-Ins 

Bring your own mug! Coffee will be provided.

Note: Registration is open to the entire 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ community, with priority given to designated partner departments and units.
