Interaction and Experience Design
Practitioners designing digital products and interfaces must be skilled with user interface (UI), user experience (UX), and interaction design (IxD) methods, but the true experience extends beyond the look of the pixels and the edges of a digital screen.
Experience design takes a more holistic view of the full user journey. The human-centered methods at the heart of this broader approach can be applied to any experience, including non-digital things, such as developing new products or innovative services. These days, a positive experience is a competitive business advantage and can increase engagement and drive success.
