Important Notices

This course will be taught in second semester.

Scientific visualisation techniques allow scientists to create graphical representations of the data created by scientific instruments (microscopes, telescopes, microarrays, etc) or by the output from computations and simulations.
Scientific visualisation is not about creating pretty pictures, it is about developing a deeper understanding of the data and to provide new insight into the phenomenon studied by relying on humans' powerful visual system.
Scientific visualisation utilises a blend of computer graphics, image processing, signal processing, user-interface methodology, system design and creative flair.

This course will teach you how to visualise and analyse your data using off the shelf software. This course is hands-on and project-based: you will work on scientific data.
