Syllabus

If you’re looking for the syllabus, you are probably looking for pages on this web site. The “official University syllabus” is a document that is posted in the official places.

I always thought a “syllabus” was a description of the topics covered in class and/or a list of the rules and policies for the class. However, the University defines the syllabus to be a very formal thing that specifies administrative information. It is officially posted in the University’s official system (AEFIS) - you can see a PDF export of this.

But, probably you are looking for something more directly useful, which can probably be found on this course web. Some specific things you might think of as the “syllabus”:

• A discussion of the class Policies
• A Schedule that lists the topics the class will cover.
• For an overview of what the course is about consult What Is This Class and Why? or 1: What Is Visualization and How do We Do It?.
• A discussion of the work of class can be found on Parts of Class
