About Master of Science - User Experience Design
The aim of the User Experience Design MSc course is to equip students with the behavioural theory, design practice and technology know-how that is necessary for a career as interaction designer, usability engineer, user researcher, or head of user experience. It focuses upon the analysis, design, prototyping and evaluation of multimedia, multi-modal, and multi-platform user interfaces that are easy to use and support a great user experience.
Each taught module guides students through a UX project – to optimise an interaction, to innovate a digital lifestyle, to apply emerging technology in a persuasive way, and to collaborate on the development of virtual reality. Each project provides opportunities to analyse, design, prototype and evaluate cutting-edge technologies, follow industry trends and apply contemporary theories. A final 'capstone' project completes the student's portfolio.
This course was developed in consultation with the Kingston University London industry panel, which includes Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, DreamWorks and Samsung Design Europe.
