The Data and Graphics section creates informative and appealing visualizations that aim to break down complex datasets, university processes and other areas of interest into an easily digestible manner for the UCLA community. It works with Online to embed interactives into the main Daily Bruin website to display the statistics often discussed in News, Sports and Enterprise articles in an engaging way.

Data and Graphics utilize the following applications in our work: VSCode, Chart Js and Adobe Illustrator. In the past, we have won awards for best visualizations.
