Data drives applications across all domains and places itself as a key strategic asset for any organization. Developing and extracting meaningful information from them is more important than ever before. Visual analytics provides a much better understanding of data and use them more effectively. Charts, graphs, and maps are now seen as more impactful ways to communicate complex data and complement analytical interpretations on them.

This course creates an opportunity for learners interested in data visualization and visual analytics to select the best visualization and develop interpretation for the given data set. It enables you to master most plot types like histograms, scatter plots, line plots and bar plots to more complex visualization. The course gives you an opportunity to understand theoretical and mathematical foundations of data analysis and allows you to learn about best practices of data visualization, and also avoiding common pitfalls. The course gives equal importance to hands-on practical exercises by visually exploring real world datasets from the domain of medicine, scientific experiments, finance and other topics of computational sciences. This course is interdisciplinary in nature and can be taken by wide range learners interested in data analysis and visualization.

The Minor Program in embedded systems and IOT is oriented to impart the knowledge of computer hardware. This program has subjects which pave the path for electronics and telecommunication in the first year. And later educating the students with microprocessors and microcontrollers. This will help to develop a good base for studying embedded systems and the internet of things.

The minor in cyber security is designed to help students from all backgrounds achieve this basic understanding. This program will,

• Provides you with knowledge of cyber security skills.
