UNSW coders is a student and staff run community dedicated for ‘R’ users for anyone who wants to further develop their coding skills. It is our goal to create a safe and open space for members to share and gain new experiences relating to R, coding and statistics.
UNSW coders host events that catered for those who are just learning their way around R as well as those who are more proficient R users.
We meet on a fortnightly basis, alternating between workshops and drop-in help sessions.
Our members as well as external speakers are invited to run short workshops that are centered around R and coding skills with the hopes to advance our members' knowledge base in addition to fostering networking opportunities.
In our drop-in help sessions, members can bring their own code and work alongside our helpers to troubleshoot their problem(s).
Our community also hosts other social events that revolve around R and coding based activites such as ‘Tidy Tuesdays’, ‘Repo Hacks’, ‘Share your code’, ‘Stats chats’ and social events such as bake offs, morning/afternoon teas and BBQs!
Life at university is dynamic. People complete their UNSW candidatures and move on to their next chapters. We hope UNSW coders will continue to grow and recruit new members and become a self-sustainable community driven by the support, passion and curiosity of our members.
