The User Experience (UX) Minor offers graphic design majors and minors – as well as students across the University – an opportunity to engage in the emerging discipline of user experience (UX). In this minor, conventional design and writing skills are refined to align with the specialized design processes involved in the prototyping of websites, interactive platforms – especially mobile apps, and software as well as analog, everyday objects. Students will learn new tools, methods and ways to collaborate in preparing for this thriving profession. The minor includes a selection of course offerings across three programs.
