Our MSc in Human-Computer Interaction will give you the skills to create, design and develop engaging interactive digital technologies from apps to immersive environments.

Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is a cross-disciplinary practice in the field of computing. It combines understanding people (drawing on social sciences and psychology) with the design of technology (using practices from art/design, computing and engineering).

You'll be suitable for this Human-Computer Interaction master's if you’re from technical and non-technical backgrounds, including:

• computer science, design, and psychology graduates
• former teachers, artists, and professionals from a range of backgrounds

You’ll gain the professional and technical skills to work in careers such as:

• user experience (UX) researcher/designer/consultant
• interaction designer
• usability engineer
• research (via a PhD)

Throughout the Human-Computer Interaction master's you'll learn the principles of human-centred design and how to design better products for human experiences. You'll also build an understanding of how using digital technologies can impact people at an individual, group or societal level.

Our MSc is taught by staff from a world-leading HCI research lab within the School of Computing called Open Lab.

Open Lab specialises in digital social innovation. This is sometimes known as ‘Tech 4 Good’. Open Lab and the wider School of Computing build on a vast range of research partnerships across both industry and public sector organisations including:

• the BBC
• Microsoft
• Google
• Barnardos
• the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies
• numerous other charities and NGOs

These organisations offer rich opportunities for enhancing your learning through:

• invited talks
• collaborative dissertation projects
