ONLINE COURSE: R BOOT CAMP FOR ECOLOGISTS

[jeff.stetz]

COURSE DESCRIPTION - Learn the basics of R from an experienced research ecologist, resource manager, and wildlife professor who will help you organize and display your data for reports, publications, and future analysis. Learn from the ground up, beginning with loading and organizing ecological datasets in RStudio to building beautiful plots for publication. Unlike many R courses, most examples used during the course are tailored to the needs of students, researchers, and professionals in ecology and wildlife-related disciplines. After completing this course, consider enrolling in Introduction to Ecological Statistics & Modeling to build on your foundation in R by learning the essential quantitative skills needed to be successful in research at school and work.

This is a 1-credit equivalent academic course (16 contact hrs + additional work) where you learn at your own pace over 3 months. This is NOT a “Watch me use R” course where your instructor presents a series of tutorials.
