The Center on Transnational Policing's partner, Criminal Justice @ SPIA, is hosting a three-day workshop on Survey Data Analysis with R. 

The three-day R workshop is designed for beginners to develop the skills necessary to quantitatively analyze data. Participants will learn how to use the programming language R to explore and manipulate datasets, focusing on real-world applications in social sciences. The workshop covers fundamental skills such as identifying issues with the data, cleaning the data by filtering, standardizing, and fixing issues in the data, visualizing descriptive statistics, and documenting every part of this process. Each day concludes with practical exercises, and participants will leave with the skills to convert raw data into useful information. While these skills can be used in many social science fields, this workshop focuses on topics most commonly used for quantitative research of criminal justice topics. The data used will also introduce students to some of the most common data used by criminal justice researchers and practitioners.

Dates: January 14–16, 2025, 9:00 AM–1:00 PM. Lunch will be provided on all three days. Location will be emailed to registrants before the event.
