About this course:

In this course, students apply what they have learned to real-world case studies and UX design challenges. Topics include research and observational techniques, the art of information gathering, prototyping, scope definition, journey mapping and empathy maps. Students complete team projects and 360 reviews and practice remote working techniques, collaboration, and balancing multiple projects. Projects will be presented in common outputs such as web and mobile, similar to what would be produced in a professional design firm. The goal is for students to perform as they would in a real-world work environment.
