Course summary
Shape the way you experience and interact with the world around you.
The BA (Hons) Interaction Design course is based within the vibrant, well-regarded Department of Illustration Animation. We are known for nurturing successful graduates, as well as our human-centred approach to visual communication, design, and immersive storytelling. These key elements will deeply enrich your learning experience. Within this dynamic environment, you’ll also exchange ideas and approaches which open new opportunities for growth and creativity.
Teaching on the course centres on understanding human experience – how we sense, act and relate – as the heart of innovative design practice. We believe students learn best through making and developing as critical practitioners who influence and shape their creative field.
