Presentation
Business is emphasizing the power of data analytics to support decision making. Visualization is a crucial tool for data analytics professionals. To be able to coalesce data into visualizations that convey useful information that effectively supports decision making is a valuable skill. In this course, you will learn basic principles and techniques in data visualization. The course will include hands-on experience using visualization software (Tableau) for data analysis and decision making. Class exercises and a semester project will give you the opportunity to apply foundational skills in design and visualization to create a data story that effectively and efficiently illustrates your analysis, conclusions, and recommendations in an interactive, visual format that assists decision making.
