The user experience skills increasingly valued by industry are not typically covered in traditional psychology or engineering programs. The Bachelor of Science program in human systems engineering with a concentration in user experience combines topics in psychology, the web, human factors, visual displays and technical communications. Through the program's innovative curriculum, you learn to make products and services useful, usable and desirable. User experience focuses on the design, development and evaluation of products and services. The user experience program addresses UX research, design, content development, communication, tone of voice and evaluation of all components and products that end users interact with. You learn how to research customer needs, identify criteria for successful products and services, prototype those products and services, and refine them through usability testing and other user-centered methods.
