2 Data Science courses that teach R — filtered to the courses where it is actually part of the syllabus, not just a mention.
This filter returns courses that centre R as the primary programming language. It excludes courses that treat R as a secondary tool or focus on Python. If you want a broader data-science toolkit that includes Python, open the parent hub instead.
