“I believe there is a very strong demand within my company for graduates from the BA (Hons) in Interaction & User Experience Design” Donal O Mahony, Director of UX & Product Design, Verizon Connect
Interaction + User Experience Design (IUXD) focuses on designing the things we interact with and the spaces/places or contexts in which we do so. Every day, we use many objects and services (real and virtual) for a variety of purposes – to find out the weather, check train times, talk/play with friends, select a movie, order food, buy a book, etc. All of these experiences involve interactive visual design and digital technology, and how well they are designed affects the quality of our experience with them. This course focuses on human-centred inclusive and universal design ensuring we benefit from good user experiences.
What will I do?
Learn to develop critical thinking and creative problem solving skills through a series of lectures, workshops, exercises and studio projects.
Use practical methods for design and user research, idea generation and visualisation including drawing, illustration, typography, graphics, animation, video and 3D
Explore how to create interactive prototypes of your projects using a range of digital tools and physical methods
Design a wide range of human-centred experiences that may include: apps, games, exhibitions, installations, websites, etc.
Work individually and in groups learning crucial project management and teamwork skills
