Catalog Program Description
UX Design involves the development of solutions to problems (particularly with websites, apps, products, or services) by relying on insights from the user. This multidisciplinary certificate will provide students with the skills necessary to gather, interpret and visualize a range of data types in a variety of mediums. Students will gain familiarity with essential software used in the field, from NVivo, Tableau, and Adobe XD. Students will develop a portfolio through project-based learning, and gain storytelling experience by the presentation of a product pitch in front of industry professionals. Students completing the certificate will be able to integrate an empathic understanding of the social sciences, the priorities of business, the aesthetics of graphic design, and the creativity of the humanities.
