Course details
UX Design
TECH 60751A
In this course, students will develop the required skills necessary to apply and guide the ideation activities that initiate the design cycle of a digital artefact (for example, website, mobile app, information system). Combining the theories relevant to the understanding of the user experience and the application of multiple methods and tools used in the collaborative ideation phase (at the scale of a project or a Design Thinking workshop), the students will acquire the knowledge, skills and abilities required to plan, guide, analyze the ideation of a complete digital artefact. In preparation for the ideation, they will learn to integrate the insights of UX research. At the heart of this course, they will learn advanced design techniques to support innovation and the integration of new ideas into a realistic framework for the organization. In doing so, they will learn to prepare ideation results for the UX prototyping phase.
