Bachelor in Interaction Design

Tuition fees are 3,943 EUR per year.

Interaction design focuses on how people use digital products and services, shaping the interfaces and experiences that connect users with technology. This bachelor's program in Interaction Design is taught in English at Politecnico di Milano, in Milano, Italy, and runs for 3 years. Students typically study design fundamentals such as visual communication, composition, and typography alongside subjects specific to interaction design, including user experience research, interface design, and prototyping methods. Coursework often covers human-computer interaction principles, usability testing, and the design process for websites, mobile applications, and digital products more broadly. Students also learn to use design and prototyping tools to move from early concept sketches to interactive mockups, and to test and refine designs based on user feedback. Subjects such as information architecture, service design, and the accessibility considerations that make digital products usable for a wide range of people are commonly included as well. Studio-based project work is central to design education, with students regularly presenting and critiquing design solutions in a collaborative setting that mirrors professional design practice. Graduates of interaction design programs pursue careers as UX designers, UI designers, and product designers, working for design studios, technology companies, and the digital design teams of organizations across sectors. Others move into related roles in service design, design research, or design strategy, applying user-centered thinking to broader business and organizational problems. As digital products continue to shape how people interact with services and information, training in interaction design prepares graduates to work at the point where design, technology, and human behavior meet.
