About

Do you need to write an essay, a report or a thesis in which you analyse data? Today students are confronted with handling large amounts of data in virtually every academic discipline, but wouldnâ€™t you like to be the one to do it in a smart way? Welcome to our summer school programme on â€œData Science for Everyone Compactâ€ at Kempten University! We will introduce you to some very convenient and free tools and show you some of the latest trends. We will even show you how to make your work reproducible for the rest of the world. You will receive a hands-on introduction to data science and become familiar with very useful tools, particularly "R", which is a free software. In our digital four-day compact programme via Zoom, you will see that "R" is both easy to learn and very practical, in particular when you do not have a background in computer science. Benefit from intercultural competence through cooperation with students from all over the world. We organise a very special digital side programme, which will make it easy to get into contact with your fellow participants, to get insights into Kempten, Bavaria and German everyday life, and of course, we would love to have a lot of fun together. We will do everything to make your digital summer school a unique experience! Welcome to Kempten Summer School 2021 Compact! Course aim: You will run your own little analysis in "R" and present your own case study. You will learn how to go from one simple source format to multiple possible output formats, e.g., HTML, PDF, and MS-Word, using "R Markdown". You will be informed about some of the latest trends as well as about some strategies to defend yourself against the possible misuse of big data algorithms. You will benefit from many practical training sessions supported by our lecturers andÂ tutors.
