The UVA Library’s Research Data Services Team is partnering with UVA’s PhD Plus program to pilot a new module – Data Science Essentials in R – a six-session series to build data analysis, wrangling, and visualization skills.
This workshop provides a gentle introduction to R and RStudio. R is a free, open-source software environment and programming language designed specifically for statistical analysis; RStudio is a free, open source integrated development environment (IDE) for R that provides a friendly interface for viewing graphs, data tables, R code, and output all at the same time. In this jhands-on workshop we’ll get started navigating R with RStudio, loading libraries, and importing data. We’ll do some basic data manipulation, exploration, and analysis, and begin creating plots and graphics. And we’ll cover some key practices and shortcuts for using R effectively and helpful resources for learning more.
