This program within a fast-changing discipline takes future designers on a journey that explores the look, feel, and behavior of digital products to create positive experiences through technology.
The Interaction Design Bachelor’s program is fully taught in English.
Interaction Design is not merely concerned with aesthetic choice; it leverages a deep understanding of users’ desires, needs, motivations, social context, constraints, and psychological factors to design an optimal user experience for digital products.
When designing a system’s behavior, the interaction designer aims to ensure user satisfaction with the product or service.
Aligned with emerging insights in the discipline, the focus is no longer on the digital product or service itself but instead on the experience mediated through the technology.
Aspects of aesthetics and form are crucial for any digital product, regardless of whether the interface is digital or physical.
CODE is all about new ways of learning
Real-life projectsEach core semester, students pitch project ideas to each other and work on real-life projects that ignite their curiosity.
InterdisciplinarityStudents form interdisciplinary project teams across all study programs, combining diverse skills to develop digital products.
Professors as mentorsOur professors take on the role of mentors, offering tailored support for problem-solving and delivering focused learning units as needed.
Self-directed learningIn a world where knowledge is just a click away, we promote dynamic education through self-directed learning and peer collaboration.
Competencies
Interaction Designers have a strong grasp of human-centred design processes, digital (and analogue) methods, and tools used in the field. You will develop the capacity to creatively experiment, rapidly prototype from low-fidelity sketches to pixel-perfect mockups, and validate ideas towards solutions.
You will develop empathy and awareness, a nuanced aesthetic sense, and a deep understanding of user-friendliness.
As part of the interdisciplinary learning model, you will collaborate in diverse teams, engage with different stakeholders, and confidently present your work to an audience. You will learn how to create alignment between customer needs, product strategy, and your design solution. Interaction Design is not just about the visual: it’s about the full experience of a user. You are responsible for designing the interfaces between humans and technologies.

Why did I decide to study Interaction Design? An Interaction Designer deals with many different issues, such as user experience and visual design, and then creates a product that is appealing and intuitive for the user at the same time.Dominic
