IXDGR-6350: Interaction Design Electives

Course Description

In these cross-disciplinary graduate studio electives we explore the different approaches, technologies, advanced topics, and domains that involve Interaction Design. To these different areas, we bring process as well as a disciplined approach to the design of systems, design for behavior, and quite often, the interactivity of technology. The sections in these courses are topical and vary by semester as appropriate.
