Tipps und Entscheidungshilfen für die Ausbildungswahl

User experience design is a highly topical and certainly very promising area of further training. UX designers conceive and plan the process that users go through in online services such as complex online stores, music or movie streaming platforms or other apps. They determine where, for example, a call-to-action button such as "Book now" or "Order now" should be placed and what design it should have. Your goal is to optimize the customer's user experience. This is just a small example of what you learn in a UX design course. This subject can be placed somewhere between IT/computer science and psychology. A very exciting and broad spectrum of very different subject content can therefore be expected in a degree course of this kind.

The Behavioral Computer Science Master's is an example of an advanced training course that deals precisely with the human/computer interface. The course is primarily aimed at people from the fields of communication and media design, business psychology and computer science. It prepares students to work as UX designers, but is also suitable for those interested in pursuing a career in the fields of data analysis or data science, AI development (the integration of artificial intelligence), behavioral research at the human-computer interface or digital strategy.

A UX Design degree program teaches skills in the following areas, depending on the focus:

  • Business psychology, industrial psychology and organizational psychology
  • Human-computer interface and interaction
  • Digital ethics and sustainability
  • Business Intelligence
  • Customer centricity and behavioral analysis

Would you like to find out more about the content and courses on offer for a UX design degree program or are you still unsure whether you really want to pursue a career as a UX designer? Then we recommend that you contact the education providers of your choice via the "Providers" tab and arrange a personal consultation if necessary. If you are passionate about technology and also have a keen interest in psychology and behavioral research, then you will certainly find your calling in this field.
