Learn how to transform raw data into meaningful information 

Drawing on the School of Information’s strengths in information science and HCI (human–computer interaction), the M.S. in Data Analytics & Visualization prepares students for work across the full lifecycle of data, from collection and storage to analysis and visualization. This degree reflects the growing need for well-rounded data professionals who have strong statistical and technology skills combined with strengths in research, communication, and design. 

All students graduate with a digital portfolio that demonstrates their skills in: 

• Research—asking complex questions surrounding data and select and apply appropriate research methods to answer them; 


• Communication—forming reasonable interpretations of data and communicate them effectively visually and narratively; 


• Technology—choosing and employing appropriate technologies for data collection, storage, manipulation, analysis, visualization, dissemination, and preservation, as related to goals, tasks, and users; 


• User-Centered Design—identifying relevant users of data and designing intuitive, meaningful, and engaging experiences for them; 


• Critical Perspectives—considering the broad impact of data on society and raising critical questions about data, its interpretation and visualization, and the methods by which these are produced.
