• CSC 105: INTRO TO DATA VISUALIZATION

  3.00 Credits

  Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

  
  Have you ever wondered how computers can make data look interesting and readily understandable? Data visualization is a computing process that can make data more understandable and approachable. Visualization can be done by people who have little experience with computers beyond browsing and using email. This course teaches students about different kinds of data visualizations and also how to create them. Reading charts, graphs, and more complex data visualizations is an important skill; knowing how to create these from data is also an important skill.
