Postgraduate certificate Data Visualization

We live in a world of complex data that we need to be able to comprehend, and the best way to do that is through graphical representations. This makes it essential for companies to have analytical profiles capable of optimizing the time and resources available to them. This is where Data Visualization comes into play, that presentation of data in graphical format that reveals unseen information behind large data sets (Big Data), gives quick answers and helps to more easily understand cause-effect relationships. Which will be your future work opportunity. Data Visualization involves understanding and analyzing the various sources from which the data comes, as well as controlling the three processes involved in any Big Data project, which are: knowing the characteristics of the data we have, analyzing the results of the transformations of this data and efficiently communicating these results. For this reason, through this program the student will learn the most relevant concepts of Data Visualization, as well as the applicable design principles and the choice of the most appropriate tools to obtain a correct visualization and succeed in this field.
