Skill School workshop series: Introduction to R
The Lund Social Science Methods Centre offers eight workshops in methods and methodologies from mid-September through mid-October in 2025. These are for teachers, researchers, and doctoral candidates who desire to continue to broaden and deepen their knowledge of research methods.
Below is a short summary and a link to Skill School's webpage where you will find more info and register for this and other Skill School workshops.
The workshop provides an introduction to the R programming language for the purpose of data analysis in the social sciences. R is an increasingly popular scientific tool and often becomes the first-choice software for implementing newly developed statistical and computational methods, especially within academia. The main goal of the workshop is that participants learn the basic functionality of R language that covers the full cycle of data analysis including data loading, pre-processing, visualisation, modelling, and communication of the results. The practical work is based on real data problems and prepares participants for a whole range of diverse data analysis tasks.
