The Data Visualization Award, offered by the University Libraries’ Data Learning Center, is designed to increase digital information literacy by raising awareness of the importance of data visualization and celebrating good examples.
Award total
A total of $250 will be awarded to overall winner(s) in the poster session, with data visualization judged separately from the other poster criteria. There may be one or more than one winner, with the monies split between all winners.
