UX/UI Designer

250 Hours / 6-9 Months, Part Time Program

This part-time UX/UI design program features expert instruction, hands-on projects, AI-driven design methodologies, and a real connection to the industry to get graduates hired.

User Experience (UX) Design is creating and designing digital products and services that are useful, usable, and desirable. UX is based on how a person feels when using a product or service, like an app, website, or software application. User Experience Specialists centralize the user in the design and development process and create an environment where customers consistently have positive, meaningful experiences. User Interface (UI) refers to the look and layout of the product, the actual graphics, visuals, colors, and fonts.

A UX/UI Designer is a person who can develop a digital product. In doing so, the UX/UI Designer has a direct effect on customer satisfaction and product adoption and scale. 

70% of design teams increased headcount in the past year. Employers rate UX/UI as one of the most in-demand product design job roles.  We can get graduates of our program (even with no design experience) to that sought-after tech job! 

Crucially, our program integrates the use of advanced Artificial Intelligence tools in the training process. This allows learners to understand and apply AI-driven design methodologies, harnessing the power of Artificial Intelligence to create user-centric, efficient, and engaging digital interfaces.

Allow Students To Explore The Art and Science Behind Human-Computer Interaction

Students will learn the professional terms and scientific basis of UX/UI, while acquiring correct practices and methods. Students will develop a knowledge of prototyping and designing for desktops, mobile phones and apps, e-commerce, psychological principles, and more.

Open Doors With Industry Connections

Equip students to succeed in a rapidly expanding field with help from our network of UX experts, instructors, hiring partners, and alumni. The UX/UI Designer curriculum was created in collaboration with the industry’s leading companies to make our programs as relevant as possible to the local industry’s needs, assuring graduates will be job-ready as soon as the program ends.
