MS Information Experience Design

The Master of Science in Information Experience Design (IXD) program (STEM) is an innovative blend of the information science (IS), human-computer interaction (HCI), and user experience (UX) disciplines. The IXD program educates students with academic or professional backgrounds in the liberal arts, humanities, as well as social/behavioral sciences and prepares them for careers in the rapidly growing UX profession, which includes UX designers, information architects, interaction designers, UX researchers, usability analysts, and content strategists.

With its empathetic, research-based, and human-centered approach to technology design, the IXD program teaches students to be well-rounded UX professionals who are not just strong designers but also skilled researchers, communicators, and strategists.

Course and Credit Requirements

The IXD program consists of 36 credits (12 three-credit classes): 5 required courses and 7 electives, which must be completed with a B average or higher. The program is designed to be completed in two years (3 courses per semester) or three years (2 courses per semester). Summer courses may reduce the length of time spent in the program.
