A world of opportunity for the digital creative
User-experience and user-interface design is all around us, from the screens we tap and swipe to the services we rely on. UX and UI design is an emerging field of multidisciplinary skills and activities designing future-facing platforms. This includes: apps, websites, digital products and services, augmented and virtual reality experiences, installation design, wearable technology and the Internet of Things.
This practice-led UI/UX design course in London, UK, looks at the fundamentals, including user research, experience design, interaction design, visual design and information architecture – and how these components can be professionally identified, investigated, informed and interrogated. It explores design thinking, human-centered design and the creative and innovative use of technology to boost organisations and inspire positive change.
When you graduate with a BA (Hons) in User Experience and User Interface Design from Ravensbourne University London, you will learn from the leading minds in the industry. You will combine theory with practice to understand user behaviour and design products and services that optimise the user’s experience.
This UX/UI design course explores the importance of designing for the end-user experience with intuitive user interfaces. You will develop an individual portfolio of projects based on user-centred research and design experimentation, which will showcase your creative, analytical and technical expertise.
