User Experience and Usability

 

A suitable occasion to use the synergies from the cooperation and to present research projects and visions for the future in exciting lectures and to enter into a lively exchange with all interested parties. The Spiegel Institute with its focus on UX and usability looks back on years of expertise and experience in the automotive industry. For some years now, the THI has been offering a promising specialisation within computer science with the two courses of study User Experience Design (UXD), Bachelor and Master. A cooperation, therefore, that makes it possible within the framework of the WUD Ingolstadt to convey exciting insights from both the theory and the practice of usability and user experience to all interested parties.


The aim of the WUD Ingolstadt is to strengthen the topics of user experience and usability in the region and at the same time to create awareness for the necessity of user-centred development. Especially for young students and visionaries, the UX expert meeting offers interesting perspectives in scientific as well as professional terms.
