This workshop provides a hands-on introduction to working with (survey) data for analysis and visualisation. We explore the possibilities and limitations of spreadsheet software and software for cleaning tabular data, and use the R programming language to create a reproducible analysis report with visualisations.

The workshop is open to graduate students and other researchers from Leiden University, Erasmus University Rotterdam, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and TU Delft.

About Data Carpentry workshops

Data Carpentry develops and teaches workshops on the fundamental data skills needed to conduct research. Its target audience is researchers who have little to no prior computational experience, and its lessons are domain specific, building on learners' existing knowledge to enable them to quickly apply skills learned to their own research.

Participants will be encouraged to help one another and to apply what they have learned to their own research problems.

You don't need to have any previous knowledge of the tools that will be presented at the workshop.
