About this course

User experience and design within computer science addresses the fundamental challenge of making technology that people can actually use. Software and systems can be technically sophisticated and still fail if users cannot understand or navigate them intuitively. UX and design is the discipline that bridges the human and the technical, drawing on cognitive psychology, interaction design, visual communication, and user research to create interfaces, apps, websites, and systems that work the way people think and need. This five-year full-time degree at the University of Dundee includes an industrial placement, giving you substantial experience in a professional UX or design environment before you complete the degree, and a year abroad that broadens your technical and cultural perspective. Dundee's programme is distinctive in its emphasis on creation alongside study: you do not just learn
