Interactive Presentation Session
The day-long UX Boot Camp is dedicated to teaching you the principles and best practices of Human-centered Design. You will be sitting through a series of informative presentations on User Experience and Human-centered Design. You will be shown how to conduct user interview, and synthesize the data to get a better understanding of the users’ problems.
Design Thinking Workshop
During the Design Thinking session, you will be split into teams and will have to carry out tasks to put your knowledge to use. This will help you to learn how to collaborate as a team, and brainstorm solutions to a specific problem.
