Our MA User Experience and Service Design degree will develop your critical awareness of major issues in user experience (UX) design, service design and interaction design. Our modules will teach you how to: (1) undertake user research, (2) identify opportunities for creating great user experiences, and (3) design transformative products/services. You will also work with industry clients, and develop material for your portfolio.
The MA User Experience and Service Design equips students to become human centred designers within industry, empowered to design socially and environmentally responsible products and services. The content of the programme will enable you to develop your skills and competencies in both the creative and analytical aspects of UX, whilst working on a diverse range of projects. This includes the opportunity to design experiences that embed digital in the physical world, take an empathic and systemic world view, and use the opportunities presented by new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) to design compelling product and service experiences.
A 2:1 honours degree (or equivalent international qualification). We consider students from a range of disciplines relevant to User Experience Design (including Art and Design, Computer Science, Media, Psychology, Business).
