Department of Mathematics Conducts Workshop on R Programming

The Department of Mathematics, Don Bosco College, Mannuthy, successfully organized a Workshop on R Programming on 28 July 2026 at 1:00 PM in the Arts Block Science Lab. The programme was designed to introduce students to the fundamentals of R Programming, a powerful open-source software widely used for statistical computing, data analysis, and research.

The workshop was led by Ms. Krishna Mukundan P., Assistant Professor in Statistics, Sri Vyasa NSS College, Wadakkanchery, who served as the resource person for the session. She delivered an engaging and informative presentation on the R programming environment, explaining its significance in modern statistical analysis and research.

During the session, participants were introduced to key concepts including data types, variables, functions, data manipulation, data visualization, and basic statistical analysis using R. The resource person demonstrated practical examples that enabled students to understand the syntax and functionality of the language effectively.

A hands-on training session formed an integral part of the workshop, allowing participants to write, execute, and analyse R programs under expert guidance. The interactive nature of the programme encouraged active participation and helped students gain practical exposure to the software.

The workshop proved to be highly beneficial, enhancing students' programming skills and strengthening their understanding of statistical computing. It also highlighted the growing importance of R Programming in academic research, data science, and analytical applications, inspiring students to explore its potential in their future academic and professional pursuits.
