We offer multidisciplinary courses in collaboration with schools across LUMS, open to students from computer science, business, humanities and the social sciences. Courses are project-based, and the strongest work continues in the lab.
The point of departure is the design of everyday things: the principles behind well-designed artifacts apply equally to interactive systems. The course works through usability and utility, then through the full user-centered design process. A group project running user research, design and evaluation is the focal point.
A handful of projects from across our courses have carried on past the final presentation — into a study, a deployment, or a paper. These are some of them.
Take one of our courses, then come and talk to us. Students who want to continue a project join the lab as research assistants and work towards a publication.
