TRIADS Training Series: Introduction to R

This 6-session course will introduce the R programming language. Designed to build foundational skills, this course acts as a precursor to more specialized courses, whether at TRIADS or elsewhere. We will explore the components of the R/RStudio working environment, delve into handling diverse data structures in R (including vectors, matrices, and data frames), and acquire the skill to create and apply our own functions. The course is structured for maximum accessibility, making it suitable for those with no prior background in any programming language or quantitative methods.

This class will be fully in-person, and participants will use their own laptops.

 TRIADS training workshops are co-sponsored by University Library Data Services, as part of the DataLab Workshops series.

Time: Tuesdays and Fridays, 12:30 – 2 p.m.

Location: Olin Library Instruction Room 1

Instructor: Ishita Gopal

Max enrollment: Enrollment is limited to 30. If you enroll and elect not to attend, please let us know ASAP so we can offer the space to another participant.
