The User Experience (UX) minor’s focus on user interaction, audience behavior, participant engagement, metrics, and observation assists students in making compelling, participant-centered work. It is the perfect accompaniment for a multitude of degree programs at Columbia (particularly Design, Advertising, Journalism, Marketing, Television, and Game Design), and gives graduates a substantial leg up in a rapidly growing field with a variety of career opportunities. Students augment their practical work with theory classes in interface design, information architecture, research, and prototyping.
