Course Overview

By studying on BA (Hons) in Design Interaction you will be at the forefront of future-focused design. You will experiment and develop emerging technology such as AR/VR (XR), AI, game engines, electronics, sensors, the Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data, and robotics. You will play a role in shaping the world around us with free-thinking ideas and opportunities. Interdisciplinary collaboration with students from e.g. Fine Art Technology, Graphic Design, Illustration, Animation, and Photography allows you to exchange skills and access technical support and subject expertise across disciplines. You will be supported by the yearly employability initiative Detour Ahead: Roadmaps for the Art and Design Industry, week-long inter-disciplinary guest talks offering you industry insights as well as guidance on subjects such as freelancing, copyright, and tax.

Our alumni may work in-house for a large company, in a specialist design studio, run their own business or be self-employed across a variety of industries. Spending three years tracking multiple projects, solving the logistics of production, and negotiating with teams of creatives will prepare you for work beyond the subject area.

The University's e-Factor competition offers students resources to develop their own businesses and the Career Coaching team is always on hand to help students fine-tune their CVs and interview techniques.
