The minor consists of both a general, knowledge building part as well as an appliance part. In the knowledge building part the 3 corner stones of visual intelligence will be covered: 1) understanding data visually, 2) data as building bricks and 3) innovation with data. The content will be offered partly in theory (knowledge building) as working on a real-life case (appliance) by the students.

In this minor students learn, based on smart use of data and visualisations, to find, recognise, develop new insights and opportunities, followed by a smart application of this knowledge. Additionally attention will be paid to data&visual literacy: thorough understanding of the role data and visualisations have in the 21st century, good interpretation of data and visualisations as well as in which way data and visualisations can/have to be used. We will achieve this based on real-life cases and an interdisciplinary setting.

The minor is intended for all study programmes.

Description of meetings: lectures, discussions, instruction lectures, project-based work.

Contact hours throughout the week during the day: 10-16 hours per week.

Based on pre-defined KPI’s the student will be assessed on participation, presentation and report 15 EC
