Master of Science in Design - Experience Design

Program Overview

This cross-disciplinary, immersive program prepares you for a fulfilling career in designing all kinds of experiences: games, extended and virtual realities, interactive environments, themed entertainment and other forms of immersive storytelling. Working collaboratively with peers and faculty, you can transform research into creative worldbuilding projects that have public impact.

The MSD program with a concentration in experience design focuses on design practices for virtual experiences in extended reality technologies, including environmental design, programmatic in both real and virtual universes, rapid prototyping, storytelling and worldbuilding. This program is unique among emerging media programs, with the application of these technologies and practices in socially engaged and transdisciplinary modalities, taking tools that evolved primarily from and for entertainment and applying them to the modeling of real-world challenges and futures.

Students develop human-centered design methods to improve user experience using theories and concepts from cognition and psychology, in addition to developing the ability to manage projects, work effectively in teams, and transform research into creative and technological products.
