Bachelor [Interaction Design] From Malmo University

Learning interaction design is a matter of building a repertoire of methods, skills and theoretical perspectives. Importantly, you also develop a sensitivity to the critical role of stakeholders in design, the implications of design in society and your own sense of interaction aesthetics.

Innovative, considered and well-executed design adds value to products and services. Interaction designers seek to understand the people and situations they are designing for, and, drawing on their mastery of interactive technology and forms of interactivity, design artifacts and experiences to improve the situation. In this process, we extensively research, sketch, prototype and test to not just get the right design, but get the design right. Designers very often take the role as the advocate for the user, and are skilled in mediating the complex of issues and stakeholders involved in the design and production process.
