Issued by USF Office of Microcredentials

Tableau is a data visualization, business intelligence, and AI tool. USF Muma College of Business (MCOB), in association with Tableau, has created a Citizen Data Science Certificate Program that allows any MOCB student to graduate with this additional non-credit certification. The MCOB has integrated Tableau in its undergraduate curriculum, where students will analyze real-world datasets, create interactive dashboards, derive important insights, and tell compelling data-driven stories.
