MA Interaction Design in University of the Arts London

MA Interaction Design provides an opportunity for experimental and interdisciplinary practice in an area of design that increasingly explores the intersection of digital and networked technologies with the world.

What to expect?

• This course immerses you in critical, creative, and experimental practice. Using new technologies, you’ll engage and provoke audiences through contemporary issues such as digital privacy, the Climate Crisis, and social and economic inequality.
• On this course, we define interaction design as the practice of making objects, spaces, and experiences that instigate new relations with humans, environments, and the systems revolving around them. Through this, we find new ways to provoke imagination, discussion, and critique.
• Our integrated approach to critical thinking will enable you to work with critical ideas in an applied design context while encouraging you to develop your own voice as a critical practitioner.
• You’ll develop practical skills in interaction design, physical computing, creative coding, and other new and traditional media forms. You’ll also build research skills in areas such as critical design, post-human centred design, feminist and decolonial theory, speculative design, and critical data studies. You’ll combine these methodologies and ideas into new and unique forms of practice.

Work experience and opportunities

The course places you in a position to work across the broad spectrum of interaction and design, with transferable skills in creativity, complexity, criticality, strategic thinking, and technical understanding.

When you graduate, you’ll be prepared to work independently or as part of a studio/company in a range of roles such as international digital artist or designer, creative technologist, or researcher in a range of fields.

You’ll learn skills for conducting rigorous, practice-based research. You’ll use design to question the world around you, which means that you'll also be prepared for further design research at PhD-level internationally.
