An Introduction to R

A hands-on R course built around public health and epidemiology datasets. Starts with installing RStudio and moves through data wrangling with dplyr, summary tables, and plotting with ggplot2, with practice questions and solutions in every chapter.

The GRAPH Courses

A short and direct first contact with R, covering the data structures, how to read and write files, and how to produce graphics and run basic statistical models. Ideal if you want the essentials without a 400 page commitment.

Emmanuel Paradis

A workbook that teaches R for social research through the tidyverse, from descriptive statistics and bivariate analysis to multiple regression and categorical predictors. Every chapter pairs the code with the reasoning behind the choice of method.
