Semester One
User Research
In this module, you’ll learn how to carry out user and stakeholder research using a variety of methods. You’ll collect and analyse data to develop personas, empathy maps, and other key artefacts that help you understand user needs — laying the foundation for more meaningful, effective design outcomes.
Interaction Design
You’ll learn how to design interactive products using best-practice usability principles, research insights, and industry-standard tools. From wireframes to prototypes, you’ll create and refine designs that respond to real user needs.
Psychology of UX
In this module, you’ll explore the psychological principles that shape how users interact with digital products. You’ll learn how perception, cognition, emotion, and behaviour influence design — and how to apply this understanding to create more intuitive and engaging user experiences.
Critical Research
Learn to critically evaluate scientific and design research, and how to formulate research questions and hypotheses. In addition, develop your skills in writing scientific and design research reports. Finally, develop your ability to critically assess research methods, results and ethical issues.
