I believe that most engineering schools (Georgia Tech I know for sure) teach the necessity of charts, graphs, tables, and illustrations in courses such as technical writing and public speaking. Also, any student in a curriculum such as engineering or sciences that has many labs will find illustrations and graphs a necessity in their reports, or their grade will suffer!
