Program details

Overview

Data is everywhere but to retrieve the valuable insights requires important analytical skills. The large number of active programmers creating R packages makes R suitable for a range of data analysis techniques, from basic hypothesis testing to generalized linear regression, and multivariate analysis such as principal component, factor analysis, or clustering. You will apply what you have learned right away in short exercises using Rmarkdown. You will be graded using an assignment in which you will learn to deal with messy data and integrate the knowledge you obtained in the exercises. The course is highly intensive as it focuses both on interpreting statistics while also learning to program in R.
