CUHK Library's Data Analytics Practice Opportunity (DAPO) Programme demonstrates students’ innovative application of data analytics and visualisation skills to real-world datasets and digitised records. One project from the 2025/26 cohort, From Correspondence to Coauthorship: Reconstructing C. N. Yang's Transpacific Academic Network History, explores the life and scholarly networks of Nobel Prize-winning physicist Professor C. N. Yang through archival materials from The CN Yang Archive and public bibliographic data provided by CUHK’s Department of Physics.
Through the analysis of scholarly collaborations, personal correspondence, and archival photographs, the student team uncovered how Yang's academic and personal networks evolved across countries and decades. The students also created two interactive visualisations: a correspondence map that illustrates Yang's global communication network, and Journey of Yang, an interactive map tracing his life and movements across the Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong, the United States, and beyond.
Scan the QR code to learn more about their project and explore the interactive visualisations.
The Data Analytics Practice Opportunity 2026/27 Programme will be calling for applications in October 2026. Stay tuned and take part in the Programme to develop and showcase your data analytics and visualisation skills through hands-on projects.
