This course focuses on data visualization, an essential skill for effectively communicating insights derived from data. It introduces three widely used Python packages: Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Plotly, each known for its unique capabilities in data visualization. The course covers the basics of these libraries and demonstrates how to create a variety of visualizations, from simple plots to complex interactive graphics. Through hands-on practice and case studies, students will learn how to choose the right visualization for their data, customize their plots, and create compelling visuals that convey meaningful insights. Optional case studies will allow students to deepen their understanding by applying these tools in real-world scenarios.

This module introduces the fundamentals of the Matplotlib package, a powerful and versatile library for creating static, animated, and interactive visualizations in Python. It begins with a brief overview of Matplotlib and demonstrates how to create a simple plot. Learners will explore how to enhance visualizations by adding titles, labels, and legends, as well as how to customize the plot’s appearance with different styles, lines, and markers. Additionally, the module covers adding annotations for clarity and how to create subplots to display multiple graphs within a single figure. By the end, students will be equipped with essential plotting skills using Matplotlib.

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
