Become immersed in the real-world practice of designing with confidence—integrating data, empathy, and collaboration to create work that thrives in multidisciplinary environments. Drawing from my experience leading UX strategy and research in large-scale product ecosystems, this program bridges academic design training with the agile, data-informed workflows used in professional product teams.
Students will learn how to ground their design decisions in evidence, use AI tools to enhance their research and ideation, and communicate insights effectively across teams of developers, engineers, executives, and policymakers.
