Abstract :
Visual analytics is a newly evolving field that spans across several more established disciplines. This panel discusses how VA system developers and researchers are best educated at the MS and PhD levels. This paper describes several ways in which VA can be characterized - with the goal of using these characterizations to identify knowledge domains that can be used to define VA curricula. Also, a digital library of VA educational resources is described
