SCI 295-01 - Special Topic: Data Visualization

4 credits (Spring)
What do pictures tell us that raw numbers cannot? How can we make sense of the world’s increasing streams of data? Perspectives from psychology, design, computing, and statistics inform an exploration of data analysis and visualization techniques. Students learn how to acquire, process, investigate, and tell stories about data through case studies, lab and design activities, and projects using visualization tools.

Prerequisite: CSC 151 , MAT 115 , or MAT 209 .
