Our Digital Product Design course invites students to become the drivers of the impact of computing technologies on our lives by translating ideas into concepts and concepts into functional products. Our students are responsible not only for the aesthetic requirements of digital interfaces, but also for the value proposition, customer research, interactive prototyping, and fundamentals of digital product development.

At the end of this program our students come out with a keen eye to understand the world and its needs, identify opportunities and respond with carefully designed user experiences. Their familiarity with complex systems, emerging technologies and integrated experiences, prepares them for one of the most in-demand design careers in the world.
