Data Visualization

We all intuitively believe that fact-based decision making is good, but we often lack the right skills required to present quantitative information in a meaningful way. Although tables and graphs are widely used, the presentation is often poorly designed-misrepresenting or obfuscating the truth. Why? Because almost no one, including financial analysts or business intelligence professionals, have been trained in information design and leveraging visualization techniques to help support better decision making.

This course teaches information design fundamentals and introduces a variety of visualization tools and techniques. At the end of the course, the student will be able to identify which visualization technique will drive the most impact under a variety of scenarios. The student will also learn how to present meaningful information in the most compelling and consumable fashion.
