Interactive Computing

Interactive Computing gives students a strong grounding in programming, with a particular focus on designing and developing highly interactive computing systems. The degree uses advanced technologies to improve the experience of the people who use these systems. The course is taught within Computing at Ulster, a department that prioritises teaching quality and research-led technology transfer. Students learn to combine technical skills with an understanding of how users interact with software and digital products. Students build interactive systems from the outset, with the user experience at the centre of their projects. Graduates are prepared for careers in software development, digital product design and related areas where interactive systems are central. The programme is delivered full-time in Belfast. Students build a practical understanding of how such systems are designed.
