Advanced Statistical Programming using R
Fortgeschrittene Statistische Software für Nebenfachstudierende
Welcome to the course website.
About
This class will teach students advanced skills in R, building on the “Einführung in die Statistische Software für NF” class. Participants will learn advanced workflows using statistical software, more complex functions, packages and applications. Examples and exercises are designed to be as close as possible to real-life scenarios and an additional focus is put on understanding the handled data. Class participants should have fundamental skills in R and have ideally completed the “Einführung in die Statistische Software für NF” class (regularly taught in winter semesters).
In case you have any questions or problems you can approach us during lectures and practicals or contact us via statprog@stat.uni-muenchen.de. Make sure to contact us from your campus email address.
