Contents

The User Experience Design III course is targeted at systematically developing an innovative UX concept and communicate it by means of a video prototype. In teams, the iterative UX design process in its individual phases (research, analysis, concepts, prototypes, evaluation) will be practically investigated and theoretical knowledge strengthened. A final discussion with experts from the industry (e.g. B/S/H, BMW Group, Designaffairs, IXDS, Netlight Consulting) provides first insights to which extent the design concept has opportunities for further development. The basics of the previous courses User Experience Design I + II provide the necessary basis knowledge to successfully complete this module.

The lecture course is suitable for Students of Media Informatics with Human Computer Interaction (HCI) as their minor subject in their 5th semester (Prerequisite: UX1/Interaction Design)
