By delving deep into the practical applications of statistics and data science, this course is designed to set you up for success.

Learn from real-world examples: Instead of spending hours on theoretical material and trying to relate it to practical issues, we will focus solely on applied statistics. Programming will allow you to apply theory to real-world problems, equipping you with the knowledge and skills you need to succeed.

We won’t be spending hours solving math problems by hand for reinforcement, as this isn’t school. Instead, we’ll use cutting-edge methods and code libraries that leverage the latest software releases to maximize productivity and efficiency.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Hi!

Welcome to my class on Matlab programming! As a PhD student in Geophysics my main tool is my computer. In order to do science one needs to know how to program. I often use Matlab in order to analyze data, run numerical models, plot results and much more. So, let's embark on the journey of learning Matlab and explore its diverse capabilities together!

For beginners:
I have designed it for absolute beginners to become at ease with the language within 5 sessions of 1h. Message me to know the 5 classes curriculum and I will be more than happy to share it with you!

For intermediate users:
If you already know the basics of Matlab but want to go more in-depth on certain packages this is the right place! Message me and we can discuss what your needs are!
