'''CS 3750''', known under the names '''Human-Computer Interaction''' or '''User Interface Design''', is a thread requirement for the [[People]] thread offered under the [[Computer Science]] and [[Computational Media]] majors, and the Computing and People minor. The course is project-based and introduces students to industry-standard design principles for user interface research and evaluation.

For the purposes of satisfying the People requirement, '''CS 3750''' and '''CS 3873''' are the same course. Talk to your major advisor if DegreeWorks does not fulfill the User Interface Design requirement upon completion of the class.

The class has two 50-minute lectures and a 2-hour lab each week. Lectures are standard and discuss topics of interest from the topic list each week. Some lectures may contain quizzes or small participation activities.
 
 
Labs operate with a cohort of students assigned to each TA. TAs provide supplementary instruction on readings and topics covered in earlier lectures. They provide guidance in forming and assisting project teams, and conducting weekly design sprint activities relevant to the current phase of the project. An example of one such activity is 'Crazy 8's' (brainstorm eight ideas in eight minutes). Some time during labs may be allocated toward team project work, although teams are also expected to meet outside of official instruction times.

This is an introductory course to foundational concepts in the field of human-computer interaction and user experience design. No prior knowledge in these areas is expected.
 
 
It should be noted that this class does not teach students how to use user interface and prototyping software like Figma or Adobe XD. It may be beneficial for students to have a basic understanding of a prototyping software application for the purposes of creating a high-fidelity prototype for Parts 3 and 4 of the project.

There are no course prerequisites or class standing restrictions for this class.
 
 
CS 3750 is a required course for [[People]] thread majors.
 
 
This course can be used as a litmus test for whether one should commit to the People thread. The fields of human-computer interaction and UI/UX design follow frameworks and processes that this course introduces, particularly within the user-centered design process that one goes through during the course of the project.
