University-Ranking Analytics and Visualization

Find new insights with Times Higher Education data across the years. Made an interactive dashboard with D3 to get these insights.

Here are some beautiful kaggle links that I found on the go which you can use in future to do further analysis.

• Data is from here : https://www.kaggle.com/mylesoneill/world-university-rankings
• Basic idea is from here : http://www.kinshuk.co/projects/univiz.html
  http://www.faygu.com/info-viz/d3
• D3 correlogram: probably add this to the dashboard in future. This is a visualization of correlation between different attributes.
• Other interesting python notebooks and visualizations on this or similar dataset

LESSONS LEARNT:

• Always plan your UI and have a higher level design(what analysis to show) fixed in your mind which shouldn't change in future.
• Coorelation factors are very important in any data anlysis. It gives a quick overview of your dataset and gives wonderful analysis results. Check [my fav] link above.
