Description
We interact with digital apps and services daily. To make this a great experience, a good User Experience (UX) and User Interface (UI) are essential. These two disciplines work hand in hand. UX focuses on usability through comprehensive analysis of user behaviour, while UI refers to the design of a product's user interface (e.g. an app or website). Through the cooperation of these two disciplines, products are developed that understand the visual experience of the user as well as their interaction with the product and the resulting emotions and sensations – and integrate these into the design process.
In our dual bachelor's programme UX/UI Design you will learn about the tools and theories that will equip you with the knowledge to develop unforgettable products that focus on the user experience. In this way, we'll prepare you for one of the most sought-after careers of the future.
