This course emphasises practical experience through projects and design studios, and encourages creativity within a vigorous design culture. You develop adaptable and resilient capabilities to design, think critically, effectively communicate and collaborate to realise your ideas in diverse situations.
Interaction design focuses on cutting-edge design skills, knowledge and capabilities to prepare you to optimise user experiences – removing complexity, making interactions more intuitive and creating responsive media.
You undertake a series of interaction design studios focusing on industry-leading practices in human-centred design, design thinking, experience design, service innovation and augmented reality. The course also enables you to incorporate knowledge and skills from other study areas into the degree.
