Target Audience

This program is intended for anyone who wants to gain fluency and understanding of digital product design. If you want to learn how to shape user experiences of software products and how to prepare design assets within a cross-functional team, this program is for you.

This program is intended for students who would like to have a significant impact on the overall user experience of digital products, from defining user interactions with a product to designing its look & feel, to understanding the entire design lifecycle, and how to effectively collaborate with engineers and product managers. You’ll learn how to conduct user research, apply design psychology, and create user interface layouts. You’ll translate research into low-fidelity prototypes, and turn those into high-fidelity designs that are ready for engineering implementation. Along the way, you’ll build a UX portfolio-ready case study that will demonstrate your design capabilities.
