Why study this course?

This course is designed to train UX Engineers. The programme is divided into two main parts: user interface (UI) design and front-end development. In the first half of the course, you will dive into the fundamentals of UI design, from wireframing to prototyping and user testing. The second half of the course focuses on front-end development, where you'll learn how to implement your designs using modern technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, as well as popular frameworks like React. In addition, you'll explore advanced tools like Storybook to effectively document and share UI components.
Mastery of tools and technologies: These courses typically teach the use of specific tools and technologies that are fundamental to the work of a UX Engineer, such as prototyping software, usability testing tools, interface design software, and more. Through the course, you will be able to master these technical tools to carry out your work effectively.
Development of coding skills: A UX Engineer often works on the implementation of user interface designs. Therefore, these courses can teach you relevant coding skills, such as HTML, CSS and JavaScript, so that you can translate UX designs into functional and attractive user interfaces.
Integration with systems and platforms: You'll learn how to integrate your UX designs with existing systems and platforms. This may include understanding APIs, adapting designs for mobile devices and collaborating with development teams to ensure the user experience is consistent across platforms.
Performance optimisation: UX Engineering courses often focus on optimising the performance of user interfaces. You will learn how to identify and solve performance issues that can affect the user experience, such as slow loading web pages or lack of responsiveness of an application.
For UX/UI designers, front-end developers, team leaders and any professional interested in the intersection between design and development. Basic knowledge of web design and development is recommended but not mandatory.

Program aims

Master UI and UX design techniques and tools.
Learn to implement user interfaces using modern technologies and frameworks.
Creation and management of Design Systems.
Become familiar with documentation and collaboration tools such as Storybook.
Develop skills to facilitate effective collaboration between design and development teams.

Professional skills

Upon completion of the UX Engineer course, students will be able to design user interfaces based on usability research and testing. They will master front-end technologies such as HTML, CSS and JavaScript to implement high-fidelity designs. They will also learn how to use versioning tools such as Git and collaborate in Agile environments, ensuring that design solutions are effectively integrated into the product development cycle.
