Project details

Short description

The course is set to contain fourteen sessions (work packages), that will be structured into bigger, more encompassing overall structures. It is meant to introduce the students to basic analytical tools that are available in R, from coding, to modeling and analyzing, but also to the vastly overlooked components in data science i.e.,  data manipulation, professional data visualization and well as coherent, reproducible communication of scientific results. All these aspects are critical to a successful completion of presentations, short reports and students thesis (be it bachelor, master or even PhDs).
