Communication for Data Scientists.

Catalog description

In this course, students will communicate about data science through written and oral communication and through data visualization using traditional and modern communication tools. Students will learn about and practice communicating data insights and technical information appropriately tailored to the audience through compelling narratives and storytelling, and they will create clear, concise, and well-structured written reports and presentations. Students will learn important data visualization principles (e.g., visual perception, design) and apply these principles in creating data visualizations using modern data visualization tools (e.g., Python and/or R). Students will also learn about responsible and ethical practices for communicating data research outputs.
