<p>Hi everyone! Right now I want to go to a college that would teach User Interface Design/Engineer / User Experience Design. Does anyone one know any schools that teach anything like this? This would be a description of the type of job I would love to get when/after I graduate. </p>

<p>Thanks everyone :)</p>
<p>I am looking for possible any schools in New York or California but If there are betters ones I would love to see which ones those are. I am having a hard time finding schools. I know that the Art Institute has something like this but I want to go to a College or University instead.</p>
<p>That’s a rather narrowly defined area of study. You could approach it through a Computer Science major, but in that case you’d get at most a few courses in UI design. You could do a Studio Art major with a minor in CS. Or put together your own interdisciplinary program.</p>
<p>A good liberal arts college or university will not define an entire program around the concept of user interface design. If you want to make that a focus or theme (rather than taking a conventional Computer Science major), look for schools that allow considerable freedom in program design. Check out Hampshire College, which is part of a 5-school consortium (including UMass, which has a strong CS department). A liberal arts approach would encourage you to build a broad understanding of the relationship among people, devices, controls and communication. But you’d need to seek out a good adviser to make sure your program has an appropriate balance of breadth and depth.</p>

<p>^ I guess I stand corrected (sorta). Apparently it works in combination with another major (CS, Design, etc.) Looks interesting!</p>
<p>A lot of students regardless of major pursue User Interface Design at the graduate level. I know University of Michigan and other peer universities (Carnegie Mellon, MIT, etc.) offer UX graduate programs.</p>
