Learn the R skills needed to analyse data confidently, build powerful statistical models, create publication-quality figures, and answer complex research questions with the Centre for Biodiversity and Conservation Science (CBCS) 2027 Summer R Workshops @ UQ.

These hands-on workshops are designed for both beginners and researchers looking to strengthen their analytical skills. You’ll learn how to wrangle data efficiently, develop reproducible workflows, apply appropriate statistical methods, and avoid common analytical pitfalls. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have practical skills that can be immediately applied to your own research projects. Although most of our example datasets are ecological in nature, the approaches and skills are equally applicable in many other research contexts.

Why learn to code in the age of AI?

AI can generate code in seconds, but it cannot tell you whether the analysis is appropriate, the assumptions are valid, or the conclusions are scientifically defensible. Learning the fundamentals of R gives you the skills to critically evaluate code and identify errors, ensuring you remain the expert in the AI loop.

Each day is self-contained so you can attend the workshops you want to.

  • Day 1 (Monday 8th February) Introduction to R and data wrangling in the tidyverse
  • Day 2 (Tuesday 9th February) Introduction to visualisation and linear modelling
  • Day 3 (Wednesday 10th February) Generalised linear modelling
  • Day 4 (Thursday 11th February) Mixed modelling
  • Day 5 (Friday 12th February) Spatial modelling with temporal and spatial autocorrelation

Registration for the 2027 Summer R Workshops @ UQ in February is OPEN.

We are passionate users of R and want to share our experience. Our workshops are accessible, interactive, informative and fun. They are run in-person only (no online option) to provide a tailored student experience and we provide all the code and learning materials. For more information on the topics covered and to view testimonials, see our website https://mathmarecol.github.io/RWorkshop/summer.html and the attached flyer.

These workshops are brought to you by the Centre for Biodiversity and Conservation Science (CBCS). For any questions about registration, email [email protected].

We look forward to seeing you there.
