Lecturer Introduction：

Gino, a Chinese in his thirty's, who majored in mathematics for a bachelor's degree andstatistics for a master's degree from a prestigious university in an earliertime, has a rich experience in R programming and teaching.

Gino solved tonsof modelling problems when he worked in the economical sector of a Top 500 Global corporations.

By doing so, heaccumulated abundant skills in modelling by kinds of software, such as SAS, R,Matlab and Stata. Among these, he chose R as the most powerful one.

During 2013, Ginogave several classes about how to use R to model in the field of statistics andEconometrics, launching a R study and training trend in this Forum, benefitingthousands of people in using R to solve the problems in study or research, andgot a highly credit from his students.

Although not anative speaker of English, Gino speaks and writes English fairly well. He can give excellent courses on statistics and econometrics using R.  

Course Introduction：

The course covers all the fundamentals in statistics and econometrics and starts from the introduction of R basic function in data management and statistics, by giving some typical examples to demonstrate key issues of R.

You will masterpractical skills to deal with the annoying data management problem before doinga seconds-running problem.

Graphing inmodelling becomes more and more important, the course won't let you down if youwant to draw elegant pictures to show your results clearly. There's no moresoftware can draw beautiful images than R.

Of course, loopsand function are the core of R, which are fully explained in this course withample instances.

Later on, thiscourse steps into the field of Probability Theory and Statistics. You will findthe magic effect that all the aspects, such as Estimation of Parameters,Testing Hypotheses, Linear Least Squares, could be done in R within secondsconveniently. Linear models could be realized in R swiftly.

The course stretches the contents to two fundamental turfs, Multivariate Analysis and Time Series,which are widely used in all kinds of industries.

The course chooses Meta-analysis as a final part because it is getting significant concernsnowadays.

Course Features:

1. Intentionally avoids the complex mathematical formulas but the most important ones and layemphasis on the idea, method of certain statistical method or concept;

2. Demonstratingabstract thoughts by using concrete examples that could be happened in ourdaily study and research frequently;

3. Never skips thecodes hazing students to understand and clearly explains every codes and resultsof every model. That means, statistical meanings of every results could befully understood by the students;

4. Not alwayspreaching at students while passing out problems for group discussion andlearning by doing;

5. Patientlyanswering questions from the students in the middle of class and encouragesprompt questions while listening.

Target Candidates:

1. Those who wantto step into the career of data analysis using a powerful tool with acomparative weak foundation of statistics and computer skills;

2. Studentsoverseas who want to grasp a statistical software to advance the research intheir study, especially those quickly makes use of these methods in the paperpublishing;

3. All the peoplewho wish a systematical training both on statistics and R.
