This workshop is designed for researchers and enables non-experts to develop computing skills for research analysis. This is a free workshop.
Who can participate?
The workshop is open to all University of California students, staff, postdocs and faculty.
Curriculum:
- Introduction to Unix Shell: learn the basics of command line interface and about navigating and working within files and directories
- Version Control with Git: learn how to manage work, edit code, and collaborate on a team project in a repository
- Introduction to R: learn basic coding, concepts, how to access data, and use functions for data analysis using a RStudio
- Introduction to Python: learn basic coding, concepts, how to access data, and use functions for data analysis using a web-based application – Jupyter Notebook.
- Tidy Data: learn how to use this tool to clean, transform, and track changes made to data.
