Combine your interest in design and technology and learn how to make a person’s experience with a product, service, or environment a positive one. Gather information about people and their needs, and then design solutions to help them. User experience (UX) design principles can be applied to the web, 3D and immersive environments, processes, and even services. You could work in tech, finance, medicine, education, entertainment, and more sectors. What is User Experience Design? User experience (UX) designers are trained professionals who understand how to ensure that the entire experience a person has with a product, service, environment, or message is a positive one. UX designers employ a wide range of methods for
- Gathering information about users and their tasks;
- Analyzing user needs;
- Creating design solutions;
- Iterating designs through testing and evaluation; and
- Measuring efficiency, effectiveness, and satisfaction.
UX professionals are in high demand and have been ranked among the top 10 best jobs. This is likely due to the fact that UX professionals are valuable in a wide range of industries including retail, medicine, technology, finance, education, and government. About User Experience Design, We teach UX design from a broad perspective that includes digital solutions such as apps, as well as services, products, and spaces. Students learn both the theory and tools used by UX designers and receive hands-on training in psychology and UX research methods, design thinking, business strategy, prototyping and wireframing, usability testing, interface design, storyboarding, graphic design, and web prototyping, and more.
