UCAS code: I310

Here's what Ravensbourne University London says about its User-Experience and User-Interface (UX / UI) Design course.

Here’s your chance to create intuitive digital products and ingenious apps that push the boundaries of user-centred design for the platforms of the future.

As you place the end-user experience at the forefront of your designs, you'll learn the key aspects of UX and UI design, from user research, interaction design, accessibility and how to design for a variety of devices and media such as websites, applications, in spaces and in augmented, virtual and mixed reality. Our course offers a hands-on approach, with both solo and group projects, allowing you to develop your creative and analytical design-thinking skills.

Students will learn from the leading minds in UX/UI design and will be encouraged to reflect, evaluate, select, justify, communicate and innovate in all areas of the course. With a focus on design for good and making a positive difference in society, you'll be empowered to push technology forward in intelligent and purposeful ways. But it's not just about creativity - the experimental nature of this subject leads to very practical skills that are in high demand across many industries.

Our course will provide you with the knowledge and skills appropriate to a broad range of design and technology career outcomes. Over the course of three years, you'll progress from an introduction to core competencies in human-centred design to more advanced interactivity through play and experimentation in software and code, and eventually to practical projects in your final year. Here will develop and create an individual portfolio of inspiring and resolved projects based on user-centred research and design experimentation. This will showcase both their creative and analytical skills and technical expertise.

With access to gold-standard facilities and a course full of industry practitioners and speakers supplementing the core delivery, you'll graduate as an industry-ready UX and UI designer with a unique skill set that will set you apart in the job market.
