In this online course, you will be introduced to the R programming language. It covers topics such as basic syntax, working with data, data visualization, and writing and debugging code. The course is designed for beginners with little or no programming experience.

All course material is provided in English. Since the course is short (3 Credits) and given completely online at reduced study pace, you can combine this course with your other studies or work.
