UCSB Carpentry is offering two R-based workshops, including an introductory R workshop for beginners and a specialized workshop for geospatial techniques in R. You may sign up for both or either free workshop depending on your interest. The geospatial workshop builds on the introductory skills in the first workshop, so if you have not had previous experience with R please sign up for both workshops.

Introduction to R
Th/F: 5/6, 5/7 9:00am - 12:00pm

This is a 2 day, example-driven workshop for introduction to R programming. Short tutorials alternate with hands-on practical exercises, and participants are encouraged both to help one another, and to try applying what they have learned to their own work. R is commonly used in many scientific disciplines for data analysis and creating data visualizations. This workshop will focus on the basics of R programming, working with data and end with a brief intro to data visualization.

Prerequisites: No previous experience with programming required
