MSc User Experience (UX) Design

User Experience (UX) Design is a specialist and highly sought-after skill which involves creating compelling user experiences which keep people engaged with computing products. Many systems fail because of problems with the user interaction, rather than problems with the underlying code. UX places users at the center of the analysis, design, and evaluation of systems. This course is ideal if you have some existing programming skills and want to get an in-depth understanding of users so that you can work with them to create technologies that offer positive user experiences. Youll develop theoretical knowledge and practical skills as you explore the latest developments in this field, including website accessibility, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Child-Computer Interaction, and multimedia for learning.
