The objective of the course is to give an overview of generalized linear models. On completion of the course, the student will be able to:

  • specify generalized linear models including conditions and assumptions
  • select an appropriate linear model for a given problem
  • carry out an analysis based on a generalized linear model in the statistical software R
  • interpret and evaluate results correctly and draw reasonable conclusions
  • clearly and concisely communicate results and conclusions
