Course Overview

Human-Computer Interaction has progressed dramatically over the years. Together with technological developments, HCI now has the ability to revolutionize human interactions with machines by providing easier, more efficient, and smarter digital services. The Human-Computer Interaction for User Experience Design online course contributes to a better understanding of the present status of computer interaction with users.

Eight MIT CSAIL specialists have committed their research activities to investigate the ways in which HCI may be improved, and they are making that knowledge available to candidates via Human-Computer Interaction for User Experience Design training so that candidates can implement it for enhanced user interface (UI) design and better user experience (UX).

Candidates will get a chance to explore the development of HCI by focusing on speech recognition, non-traditional interaction, and fast prototyping, among several other topics, directed by industry experts. The Human-Computer Interaction for User Experience Design syllabus covers real-world integration of technology targeted at improving UX and UI design and expanding knowledge beyond interfaces by incorporating long-run HCI into overall work.

Eligibility Criteria

Certification Qualifying Details

To qualify for the Human-Computer Interaction for User Experience Design certification, Candidates will have to finish the modules of the online course along with the coursework including assignments and projects. Candidates will have to participate in formative tasks such as live polls, quizzes, surveys, and case studies. A series of submitted projects and assignments are used to assess the progress of students. All the requirements written in the coursebook must be met to qualify for the certification.

What you will learn

Designing skills

After completing the Human-Computer Interaction for User Experience Design online training, Candidates will develop the capacity to incorporate HCI thought inside their work, expanding on their present user experience (UX) expertise to discover new possibilities and gain access to the cutting-edge research of eight industry professionals who are reshaping the face of human-computer interaction. Learners will also develop a capacity to better interpret speech and visual tools through technology such as gaze-following and eye-tracking.

Who it is for

Individuals who want to learn about the most recent HCI research as part of professional development.
Those interested in pursuing a new profession in human-computer interaction.
UX designers who wish to learn about real-world applications and HCI in order to create better interface designs.

MIT Cambridge Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

1: What is Human Computer Interaction?

Human-Computer Interaction is an interdisciplinary branch of study that focuses on the design of information technology and the interface between users and computers.

2: What is the HCI objective?

HCI objectives include assuring system operation and usability, implementing adequate user interaction support, and improving the user experience.

3: How do humans interact with computers?

User Interface is the medium by which humans interact with computers.

4: What is the drawback of human-computer interaction?

One drawback of human-computer interaction is that humans must be taught what to do and humans take rest while computers don't need rest.

5: Which is the best HCI course?

The Human-Computer Interaction for User Experience Design course by MIT is the best HCI course.
