User Experience and Interactive Systems

Catalog description

This course concerns the fundamental issue of effective and usable human computer interaction. In addition to technical issues, people and process must be understood to create effective and usable tools. As CS and IT practitioners create and manage systems as effective problem-solving tools for others, they must develop a user-centered perspective within the organizational context. To that end this course will study related issues including cognitive principles, human-centered design, ergonomics, accessibility, emerging technologies and usable environments. CSC 3020 is part of the AI concentration in the CS curriculum. Prerequisites: (CSC 200 or 2000 ).
