Conveying Visual Data Insights

(3 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

The development of data insights utilized to create a competitive advantage, optimize processes and decide on strategy is increasingly becoming more commonplace in organizations today. Software companies have "commercialized" this process and made access to information from datasets available to anyone through easy tools and interfaces, yet this has created an environment full of noise, leading to a loss of the important insights necessary to create value. This course will provide a foundation for students to develop and effectively communicate clear visual insights and actionable data necessary for defined audiences using Tableau and other visualization and presentation tools.
