R Working Group

Building our WSU R Community

At WSU we have a breadth of research questions being addressed with R, an open source statistical environment. Successful learning and use of R requires community involvement, knowledge sharing, and collaboration.

Each week a different topic will be covered, spanning multiple skill levels, with additional time for questions and help. Once a month we have collaboration sessions where we work on collaborative projects, troubleshoot, and discuss research topics and R issues.

SPRING 2019 term the R Working Group sessions are on Wednesdays at 12:00 pm, in PACCAR 202. Check out our blog!

R group WoRk TogetherRs are informal opportunities to work on your code with other R users. Join the ListServ to stay updated on our next WoRk TogetheR, a Cafe Moro takeover with our sister group, the Python Working Group. Bring your computer and code – we will have power strips.
