USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN

Catalog description

This course will expose the student to a wide variety of human-computer interaction material to enable them to understand and design positive user experiences with technology. Students will study the theory of user interface/experience design in class and will put that theory into practice through laboratory exercises and teamwork. Ways to learn from users will be covered, as well as design methods including prototyping, heuristics, and best practices. Broader design topics related to current computing trends will also be discussed from a human-centered perspective.
