Information Visualization

Data is everywhere. Charts, graphs, and other types of information visualizations help people to make sense of data. This course explores the design, development, and evaluation of these visualizations. By combining aspects of design, computer graphics, HCI, and data science, you will gain hands-on experience with creating visualizations, using exploratory tools, and architecting data narratives. Topics include interactive systems, user-centered design, graphical perception and cognition, data storytelling, and insight building. Throughout this course, you will work directly with stakeholders to analyze data from a variety of domains and applications.
