Certificate Course in UI/UX Design
Course Duration – 9 Months
Course Description
Every digital interface/interaction (e.g. web and mobile application, car dashboard, smart appliance) was designed to solve a problem or to make our lives better, easier, more successful. Every time you use your phone, the buttons you push, the gestures to swipe up, down, left right, the font choices, the color scheme—all these were designed by a UI/UX designer. In other words, UI/UX is the communication layer between the computer software and the user. This hands-on, projects based course, explores the principles and practice of user interface and user experience design for digital platforms.
Students use the human centered design process to understand users and design digital tools that are intuitive to use and create a bit of delight along the way. We use tools in this class like figma, mural, notion, and slack to design in teams. Weekly assignments reinforce learning along the way and a final project pulls it all together.
