CHEP 845

Graduate students in the health sciences, community health, and epidemiology will learn to use R, a statistical software frequently used in health sciences research. This course provides an overview on data entry, data management and manipulation, and visualization using R and also covers basic statistical applications, including linear regression, and logistic regression. To demonstrate proficiency, students will be given a dataset with steps to follow and analyze based on the learning outcomes. This class is expected to help students build capacity with R and the research process. They can begin to consider how to use R to apply their biostatistics knowledge to their graduate thesis or other research.
