Overview

User Experience (UX) Design from University of New Haven applies human-centered design methods to complex systems that enhance human experiences, focusing on the interfaces between people, products and systems.

Key facts

For example, is a website visually appealing? Does it have a clean layout and consistent branding? Is an application easy to navigate? Is the information the user is seeking prominently displayed with responsive design and touch-friendly elements? UX design also extends beyond the digital world. For example, are products in a retail store arranged logically to guide customers effortlessly through their shopping experience, with clear signage and easy access to items? In a hospital, are the appointment scheduling process and waiting room experience improving the quality of service patients receive? Whether it’s a digital product or a physical environment, UX design is about understanding how people interact with products, services, and spaces and ensuring that these interactions are as intuitive, efficient, satisfying, and user-friendly.

Our program fills a significant gap in the current program offerings in Connecticut. While other institutions incorporate some UX design courses in their graduate degree programs, ours is the only one that offers a degree specifically tailored to UX design.
