User Experience Design Highlights

User Experience (UX) design is a growing interdisciplinary field focusing on the interaction between humans and technology and the design of meaningful and transformative user experiences. It focuses on having a deep understanding of users and their needs and using that understanding to guide the design of new sites, apps, products and services.

Beyond the Classroom

Students in this emphasis gain practical experience through internships, working with community partners, including nonprofit organizations, to design and prototype powerful web experiences.

What You’ll LEARN at Weber

The first two years of the program focus on front-end web design and development stack, basic coding languages and other fundamentals for creating great-looking web pages.

As you go on to earn your bachelor’s degree with this emphasis, you’ll learn to understand and analyze user behavior and experience, perform quantitative and qualitative user research, and design, test and prototype responsive and accessible web experiences.

What You CAN DO After Weber

After two years, you can work in entry-level positions as a front-end web designer/developer.
