Program Overview

The MS program in human systems engineering with a concentration in user experience research focuses on designing products that are useful, usable, desirable, easy to learn, efficient to use and easy to remember. It focuses on the research, design and validation of all system components an end user interacts with, including software user interfaces, documentation, help systems, user support, aesthetics and communication. It is an important specialization within human systems engineering with a bright job outlook.

Students may complement their education with courses in graphic information technology, technical communications and entrepreneurship to strengthen their skills in information architecture, visual design and user interface prototyping. Additionally, hands-on user experience projects in these classes help students build portfolios necessary for entry-level positions.
