Our Courses

This course focuses on effective design principles for data visualizations and programming skills for creating visualizations. The course consists of lectures and in-class design activities to learn about visualization principles, and individual programming labs that teach students how to develop web-based visualizations.

This course will introduce you to broad classes of techniques and tools for analyzing and visualizing data at scale. It emphasizes how to combine computation and visualization to perform effective analysis. (Often taught with CSE6242 as one class.)

This course focuses on the principles and applications of data visualization, helping students become better visualization designers and critics. The courses emphasizes use of off-the-shelf software tools such as Tableau, so students without a technical programming background are welcome. It is our introductory graduate visualization course.

This course focuses on advanced topics in information visualization with more of a research focus. The course emphasizes reading recent visualization research papers and learning web-based visualization development with d3. Students taking this course should have prior programming experience in some high-level language.

This course focuses on theories, methods, and studies of the human process of analyzing and understanding data using visualizations. The course consists of readings and discussion of these topics, individual homework assignments, and a group data analysis project that runs the duration of the semester.

This course will introduce you to broad classes of techniques and tools for analyzing and visualizing data at scale. It emphasizes how to combine computation and visualization to perform effective analysis. (Often taught with CX4242 as one class.)

This special topics course will walk students through the principles of geovsiualization and geovisual analytic systems, with a focus on interactive components, digital cartographic design, geostatistical functionalities and display, and software UI configuration.
